All the secrets in your head
you say they're better left unsaid
but if you dared to let another know
a weight will lift and your strength will show

Making amends
we did our best
we loved the most
until there was nothing left

Sometimes all we need
is silence in our head
and the sound of rain

Girl gives sunshine smile
A boy reacts with the moon
Galaxy flirting
--
She cries pretty glass
Her heart hurts for a freedom
She’ll walk with sharp steps

Flying flower with wings of
Black and golden yellow
Danced round and round
The candle light
It fluttered and hovered
Little did it know
That the light
Would take its life
Even as it fluttered
One last time
And went still

Wind & rain
I want to whisk you away
Kiss my love into your veins
Leave no part of you
Untouched

The cosmos how quiet you are today,
alas, you work in such mysterious ways.
Irresolute I wait outside your door,
I knock
I knock,
this other world cannot be ignored

The beguiling stars
aligned for me.
The sapphire sky
evoking the sea.
I pass along this trajectory,
floating,
floating ,
floating,
free.

Can I get a taxi
because I need to go home
too long along these cobbled streets I have roamed.

I am not a wanderer nor a rolling stone
My quest has always been to guide myself home

Phantom voices
Long ago forgotten
Whisper
Among the old stones
Hello

Three friends
Lie down on the road
Etching a memory
Across the milky way sky
The smoke mingles with the breeze
