A Year
You said that you loved me
Last january
We stood outside covered in snow
I remember feeling happy
All of february
When we went for long walks in the cold
The wind was so harsh
Until we entered march
and the sky slowly changed from white to gold
It was very painful
when you left in April
Off to see the world a new way
and I waited for you
Every second of May
Looking up and down the road all afternoon
and the joy in my heart
When you came in June
Slowly faded with every lie
I barely recognized you in July
You asked for time to adjust
I gave you all of august
It passed in a confused blur
In September I saw you with her
Sorrow took me over
All of October
Losing you while wanting to remember
Having flashbacks all of November
The cold came back, more falling snow
In December I decided to let you go
You said you loved me
Last January
and I´ll never forget it I swear
Now I know love is never forever
A lot can change in  a year
Wrote this last night, wasn´t quite sure about it at first.. but adding it now. Feel free to tell me what you think.

Heartbeat
Why is your heart so restless?
It beats hard beneath my fingers
Is this for the best?
In the air your question lingers
I should say yes
But I do not know
The words won´t leave my lips
While your heart keeps beating on
Underneath my fingertips

You look me in the eyes
and say you wish
It didn´t have to be like this
I reply with a kiss
We never were good at goodbyes
We move apart with care
I can hear your heart from over here
We are no good
Not together or apart
Hopelessness in the air
of love so misunderstood
The beating of your heart
Echoes were you stood

It didn´t
It was my dream but
It wasn't mine to take
So I didn't know what
To do but stay awake
Waiting for it to go away

but it didn´t
it didn´t

If I closed my eyes I
Would draw up your shape
Holding on to hope that
Only a dream can make
Waiting for the trance to break

but it didn´t
it didn´t

I am falling asleep
I´m dreaming about you
You were never mine to keep
You always knew

But I didn´t
I didn´t

So don't let night set
Don't sing me a lullaby
Don't make me forget
That we said goodbye

Cause I didn´t
I didn´t

Because I lost you
Blood is flowing through my veins
My dress is full of red wine stains
and I am feeling much in pain
Because I lost you

The world is spinning very fast
From the future to the past
I´m wishing the memories would last
Because I lost you

I hear music start to play
Please don't play that song today
It fills me with dismay
Because I lost you

Pieces all over the floors
Both from my heart and from yours
Tried but couldn't find the source
Because I lost you

Now I guess we'll never know
You held on and then let go
Tears are starting to flow
Because I lost you

Make this sadness go away
but it never will after today
You helped me find my way
and now I´ve lost you..
Losing someone is never easy.

Never say hi
Never say hi
Never say hallo
Don´t you remember
Don´t you know
That we threw stones
and built a wall
So thick I can't hear you anymore

Never say hi
Never say hallo
Watch how much despair can grow
It´s covering the wall that we made
I never forgave
That I must confess
But now our world is soundless

Never say hi
Never say hallo
I won't say it back
I heard my heart break
After you said goodbye
and I heard nothing after that
I was inspired by a friend of mine. This one means a lot to me.

Rocks
I waited for rocks to fall
I waited for sorrow to pour
Down on us like it could end the drought
Picked up a rock real slow
Waited for another blow
Until the world would blackout

I waited for the rocks to sting
Like I knew this day was coming
Chasing us because we were elated
Picked up the words I had spilled
The next moment silence filled
We both hung our heads and waited

I waited for rocks to fall
I waited for sorrow to pour
Down on us like it could fill the gaps
Every bleeding painful cleft
Until I had no love for you left
Until this moment would elapse

I waited for sound to breakthrough
I looked at all the rocks we threw
Chasing away each other in fear
All the gray rocks and gravel
As a symbol of our lost battle
The only trace that you were here
This poem was written this April. I love using nature in my poems.
