We all need true Hope to keep moving forward
In this here life that we all are living right now.
So many giving up and ending it on their own.
But we need to keep persevering in this life.
This is a race that each of Us are in right now.
I am praying that we all make it to the finish line.
That after we finish this here race we shall eat together.
Celebrating that we all has finish the race here.
My prayer is that we shall celebrate it together.

I don't know what happened
Until you and I talk like
We were just neighbours
Saying 'hey' and just normal Conversations.

One answer per one question.
That's all it is.
I miss the way you smile at me
Like I am the only joke
You have ever seen
And now all of that has changed,
No more 'goodnight' and not even a Goodbye at the ending scene.

Just so you know,
Even if your life turn out to be hard,
I will always stay there,
Right there deep in your heart.
As I stand here today……
Bone of my bones, blood of my blood
Man, son of woman, long before flood
Long before Bible, Torah, Koran
Long before war, long before man
Long in the darkness, long in the night
Long before fear, long before fright
Long before flesh, long before blood
Deep in the water, deep in the mud
Down in the magma, right at the core
One gentle lamb with a lion's roar

It’s just an instant
And I lose my courage
A little bit of distance
And I fail to flourish
Just a few words
To shoot me down
A few little tears
Turn a smile
To a frown
Illusion of an empire
Made purely by heart
And I used all that I had
To make sure it didn’t fall apart
Precautions and experience
Mixed with a misled wisdom
And truth
I’ve been trying to fix it
Since my untamed and erratic youth
A second alone
And the loneliness sets In
A minute of quiet
And all I hear is silence
A moment of mayhem
And I am back to my truth
Living in consequence
My scars my proof
Each day I wake up
And I promise to be strong
Promise to make a difference
For all of your wrongs
Here I am
What is this strength ?
You can’t see me
Because your already gone
And I am left
Trying to sew myself
From being torn
Maiden of misery
I balk at the thought
Each day a new mystery
And love is self taught x

Someone stole my color
And threw it to the wind
Scattered like ashes
I don’t know if I’ll ever find it

Someone stole my color
From the face I know so well
I saw it in the cotton candy clouds
And the teal ocean swell

Someone stole my color
I guess that’s where it went
The world looks so much brighter
Like something heaven-sent

Someone stole my color
And that’s what no one knows
Depression isn’t black
It’s the color of a rose

It’s the light orange in a sunset
And the yellow of a peach
Light blue, my favorite color
So simply out of reach

Purple like my favorite eyeshadow
No, lavender, I’d guess you’d say
And my favorite music artist
Although he has passed away

Someone stole my color
Now everything’s too bright
I suppose sometimes darkness
Isn’t the opposite of light

Someone stole my color
So I’ll wear grey and black
As if in mourning
Until I get it back

i would follow my heart
but its in a million parts
so which one is right
the most bright?
Meditative fly
sits in a lizard's bull's eye,
deceptive calm reigns.
