Crush

Break it's tiny neck
Watch the body go slack
Pull out it's tattered wings
Listen to your blood it sings

Crushed by your fingers
Some fluid still lingers
You watch it go
Down the endless flow

One more crushed
Whimpers hushed
But the emptiness
Only makes you feel even less

Hands raised to the sky
Gaze followed by staring eyes
It's so hollow inside
And so dark as the night

I watch the trees melt
I see the clouds pouring blood
The rivers dead fish held
Combined to a horrendous flood

A short breather

The touch of raindrops
On my face
I try to taste

Feather light touch
Caressing my skin
I try not to cling

A sigh of wind
Runs through my hair
I try not to shiver

Can I be at fault
For I prefer nature
Instead of the assault
Of some humanly creature

I fled into the woods
In search of protection
I stood beside a river
And gazed into my reflection

In water I was drenched
Upon each sound I flinched
My hands were tightly clenched
Of blood my clothes still drenched

Sunshine trickled down my body
Soft and warm
Until dawn
Then, I was gone...

Freed

The pain is gone and I feel free
No time that changes who I'll be

Wenn ich an dich denke

Wenn ich an dich danke
(When I think about you)
I think
I'm not strong enough
Not for you, not for anyone
For a long time I tried acting tough
Bit this behaviour is gone
Don't know what is left
I'm sure it's nothing you would like
Maybe it would be the best
If you don't stay by my side
There's so much pain inside of me
You wouldn't understand
Nothing you can see
It's like drowning in sand
My innerst feelings are hidden
I kept them away from you
Cause they are forbidden
You know that tok

Think

I think
And that's what I love to do
That it is all in my head
I blink
And I have to realise
That I was once again misled

Homesick

Lonely, I am so lonely
I feel like you're leaving me behind
I never knew I could feel so strongly
But it seems you do not mind

I want to hug you, never leave you
But I guess now it will end
It doesn't matter how much of this is true
All this time, it is spent

I have to say my goodbyes
When it gets dark you can hear my cries
I miss your arms, I miss your smell
I miss your touch and how it felt

Mirror

Who is the person in the mirror
Looking into her eyes makes me shiver
What kind of a world am I living in
Runs through my head when I see her grin
Is she me? Am I me? Is she she and I am I?
Do we share the same world?
