Life is moving too fast
He's falling behind
He would share his deepest thoughts but no one would understand
He remain in his silence
With eyes that are greedy for a meaning
Heart that searches for happiness
But sometimes he wonders if this happiness is even worth reaching
He stares into the reflection of the mirror
He sees a young boy,
Innocent, but seen as a kid with many wrongs
Can't adapt to this monotious world
Maybe this is a mistake, it clearly doesn't look like this is where he belongs.

I can hear the shouts of emptiness,
Brought by the whispers of the wind
Your loneliness is a snowflake,
Carried by the breeze of my embrace
Caught up in the scare of the darkness,
My hand in yours, leading you to comfort.

My love is infinite, like the blue skies
As you walk through the journey of life,
Let my words inspire you to visualize beauty,
The beauty which has been blinded by insecurities
I want to sink into your memories, like the warmth of a winter fire
When it burns out,
I want to be the ashes that last in your soul for eternity.

As you use the thoughts of tomorrow,
To escape the hell you’re experiencing today,
Let my kiss bring you the perfection of this very moment
As you feel the coldness of this world shiver on your gentle skin,
My touch will be the influence of warmth,
Burning slowly a place unknown
Known by you and I,
Today, tomorrow and forever won’t matter
Ignorance caused by the beauty of the love we’ll experience together.

Your hand in mine
So close…
So soft…
The feeling of your love, comforted by your warmth
My heart beating your name.

Time goes by, you walk away
Leaving me as cold as I once was
The wind carries my broken heart
Far beyond the mountains
Into the caves covered with darkness and isolation
The hand that once led me to happiness
Now leads me to the sadness of the drops of the summer rain.

High above the sky
I walk on the smoothness of the clouds that your words devoted to never bring me pain when I fall
So peaceful,
You lies brought about ignorance which was so blissful
Now I’m falling, feelings meandering into waterfalls
Now I’m falling, into the depth of the river, drowned by the waters of broken promises.

I dig deeper
Trying to find the treasure of your heart
I dig deeper
Trying to find the meaning of happiness
I dig deeper
Trying to find the hand that was once comforted by your warmth.

Peaceful words
Let you thoughts float amongst the skies
Beautiful heart
Let the greatness of your actions inspire other souls
Endless possibilities
Let the power of your vision lead you to your goals.

Walk away from the pain and agony
Take the steps to eternal joy
It's your life don't let anything else take authority
Don't let negativity play you like a toy
Live a life you feel is worth living
Remove the doubts that are holding you back
Push until you reach the life you've always been dreaming.

Be out of your mind
Be unique and shine ,
Twinkle through the darkness like a star
Don't let people with judgmental words harm you
They don't even know who you truly are.

Lost deep within the dark forests of doubt
Searching for the simplicities of a perfected life
Fountain overflowing with the curiosity of my infinite thoughts
The thought of happiness has always eluded me
Troubles of my yesterday burning up in flames.

Drowning in the purity of clear waters
Carried within the tides of new beginnings
The flashbacks from the past are haunting me
Their voices glitter amongst the city lights
Each word shining brighter than before.

Give me the warmth
The softest touch of love
The comfort of the smiles of a heart that was once broken
The strength of the wings of a bird that has fallen.

Silence broken by the screams that once brought inner peace
Enhance in me the spirit to be ignorant to the cold winter days
The spirit wise enough to see nature’s wonders
Wonders which have been portrayed in its beautiful ways
