Sofie
we're foolish lovers
living a lie

we're foolish lovers
stuck in the past

we're fools
for trying
to love each other

for we both know
we're only
fooling ourselves

we're foolish lovers
bound to regret

that we're foolishly pretending
not to love
someone else

It is as if
My most golden time
Was when I had absolutely
No need for gold
All that altered my life
Was the glimmer in your eye

An artist once again inspired,
Ready to create his art.
Sleek metal against a rugged backdrop.
Carefully coordinated strokes caress the canvas,
Yet erratic to the bystander.

An old friend assists the painter.
Carefully guiding his hand.
More strokes here,
More colors there.
With a devilishly playful smile,
And a hopeful stare in his eyes,
As he awaits the artist’s masterpiece.

Finally, the artist finishes his work.
He puts down his instrument,
Covered in red paint,
He admires his newest edition to his gallery,
Smiling.
Yet is met with a disappointed frown.

Ha-ha.
Sorry old friend,
It seems that
I missed the most important stroke.
Don’t worry old friend,
I still have enough inspiration,
To try again.
Some other time.

She doesn’t care about you,
She threw you away.
That doesn’t mean you’re worthless.
Your life doesn’t revolve around her.

Remember your potential,
Your self-worth.
You are amazing,
You are loved,
You deserve better.

Better than her.
She can not steal that from you.

So promise yourself,
Promise to achieve that greatness,
That greatness you’re destined for.
Prove to her
That she’s a fool
For ever betraying your love,
For ever abandoning you.

Achieve your revenge
By being better,
Better than she’ll left you.
Promise you’ll remember always
You are better than this.
Promise that she is not the end,
To your everlasting story.
A little self-motivation.

there is no guarantee
that we will ever be free
I can't tell you why
the rain pours
and the people mourn
there is no guarantee
that we will ever find peace
I can't tell you why
we go to war
and why he called you a *****
there is no guarantee
that we will ever be happy
I can't tell you why
half of us are on anti-depressants
and why we are fighting the resistance
I can't tell you why
there is no guarantee
