Appeared from nowhere
and captured my eye,
firing up a flare,
lighting up my sky

Like a shooting star,
it blinds the eyes but stays so far,
Like a shooting star,
It burns the heart and leaves a scar.

Now all the light is gone,
It went away too fast,
on the clouds a dream was drawn,
the ink would never last.

An angel flying too low,
wandering through space,
she can’t ever know,
how much I miss her face.

Now my sky is dark,
the other stars look dim,
under the night’s arc,
her love I can’t redeem.

Every time that we come close enough,
it is more unbearable to go away,
every time that I leave I try to laugh,
while all my cells beg me to stay.

Don’t open the door, don’t leave the car,
I need to hold your hand, to feel you near,
one step away is already one step too far,
I need to feel your breath, caressing my ear.

When I dive deep into your eyes,
I’m no longer sane, I can’t tell right or wrong,
I’m getting lost, the time flies,
one second without you, is already one second too long.

Still on my arms, the dance of your fingertips,
on my hand, the shape of your smile,
still on my lips, the taste of your lips,
trying to hold on to memories, mile after mile.

I’ll pave the land, I’ll breathe the air, I’ll drink the sea,
every knot that stands between us, I will unravel,
I won’t stop until the only distance that we see,
is the distance from where we stand to where we’ll travel.

With the last sight of the daylight,
he comes knocking on your door,
he brings the darkness of the night,
but what is he really looking for?

He feeds from every lonely soul,
he drinks the pain from the tears,
bears the eye of the ever-watching owl,
between the cracks he smells the fears.

The earth starts trembling as he walks,
while you’re crawling to your bed,
he brings a cage made of oaks,
as you’re trapped neither alive nor dead.

All your inner demons start to scream,
mistakes echo on the corners of the room,
shattered pieces of a long-forgotten dream,
hollow voices composing melodies of doom.

You look for hope but it’s all gone,
you try to hold on by memories of bliss,
you need a hand but there is none,
slipping deeper into the Abyss.

Every time he comes he takes a toll,
harvesting your soul like a field to crop,
he will keep coming ’till he collects it all,
useless to pray, begging won’t make him stop.

With the first sight of the daylight,
he leaves you laying on the floor,
exhausted from this endless fight,
what are you really looking for?

From wikipedia: In Greek mythology, Erebus /ˈɛrɪbəs, -əb-/,[1] also Erebos (Ancient Greek: Ἔρεβος, Érebos, “deep darkness, shadow”[2] or “covered”[3]), was often conceived as a primordial deity, representing the personification of darkness; for instance, Hesiod’s Theogony identifies him as one of the first five beings in existence, born of Chaos.[4]

Now all seem dark and wild,
the heavy clouds, the rain,
I promise you my child,
the sun will shine again.

The sadness, the sorrow,
they will be gone tomorrow,
no matter what they say,
we’ll make it go away.

When daylight meets your eyes,
the world is yours to take,
the trees the sea the skies,
no right and no mistake.

No worries, no fears,
let me wipe your tears,
you’ll never be alone,
I’ll be your stepping stone.

Sleep now, dream on,
you need to trust my word,
Sleep now, dream on,
make this a better world.

If you fall, you will rise,
always be kind and wise,
this isn’t a goodbye,
this is your lullaby.

Your hopes, your dreams,
will be the brightest gleams,
this isn’t a goodbye,
this is your lullaby.

In her voice, I sense the fears
of belonging nowhere else
In her eyes, I see the tears
lying trapped behind the fence

I see her talking, to the sparrows,
always being on the run,
a life wasted, in the shadows,
dreaming how bright is the sun

In the morning, I see the world
a world she might never see,
while she’s freezing, in the cold,
scared of drowning in the sea

Tired, she gets no peace of mind,
between the bombs, bees that flee the hive,
home and family, she left it all behind,
she doesn’t know, who’s still alive

I see a spark, in her eyes,
she says “I will never quit,
there ain’t borders in the skies,
maybe this is where we’ll meet“

I tried to set the memories on fire,
but they dove deep into the sea,
they wore the darkest blue attire,
how can you destroy what you cannot see?

I tried the proper vessel to find,
all the memories inside to keep,
But no door could hold them behind,
no cage was so strong, no well was so deep.

I tried to use a pen and words,
inside a piece of paper the memories to seal,
but they became roaring swords,
a burning flame you can’t conceal.

I tried to block the memories away,
but they keep sneaking into my dreams,
low voices that whisper in the day,
in the night they grow to screams.

I tried the memories by any means to fight,
but they grew stronger, on my tears they fed,
I thought If I could kill them it would be alright,
but all I was killing was me instead.

It’s a long long distance

I can’t see you anymore, I have missed your face,
Is it hidden in the moon, or disguised among the stars?
‘cause I’m searching at the moon, and I recognize the stars,
but I can’t find you anymore, empty space.

I can’t hear you anymore, I have missed your voice
it’s quieter than the silence and louder than the rumble,
I can break the silence and I can ease the rumble,
but I can’t hear you anymore, only noise.

I can’t have you anymore, what did remain?
few wide open wounds, deep cuts turning into scars,
I can close the wounds and I can heal the scars,
but I can’t feel you anymore, only pain.

Where are you? please show me the way, between us long roads, above us the endless sky,
I travel the roads and I’m climbing the sky,
but I can’t reach you anymore, you’re so far away

it’s a long long distance

10.06.2018

Where would you be,
would you be flying around?
like a bird or a bee,
if you didn’t lie on the ground?

Would you get on your feet
if you had the choice?
Who would you meet,
what could make you rejoice?

Who would you like to hear,
if you could silence the noise?
What would enchant your ear,
whose whisper, whose voice?

Who would you like to see,
standing in front of your eyes?
Who would tame your troubled sea,
what could clear the bitter skies?

Whose hand would you hold,
if you still had the time?
What stories would you unfold,
with whose words would you rhyme?

Would you choose to leave
if you didn’t feel lonely?
Would you still live
if you weren’t so lonely?

29.04.2018

Fly, fly, fly above the clouds my child,
may the people be good, the weather be mild,
maybe all your dreams, there, you can follow,
away from this merciless land of sorrow.

Fly, fly, fly away my dear,
may you never have to shed a tear,
for every minute you fly, for every mile,
may life bring you another smile.

Fly, fly, fly fast my kid,
you have from me all the wishes you need,
may you don’t have to wait that long,
to find the place that you belong.

Fly, fly, fly high and have no fear,
what takes you away, can bring you here,
the door will be open, the fireplace will burn,
in case you ever decide to return.

You said “come and hold my hand”,
“tell me this will never end”,
then you kissed me,
yes you kissed me.

You said “everything is fine”,
that I’m yours and you are mine,
but you tricked me,
how you tricked me.

You said “can I stay here?”,
“I need to feel you near”,
but you left me,
why you left me.

I looked deep into your eyes,
where did you really hide the lies?
that deceived me,
you deceived me.

I should have known from the start,
before I open up my heart,
that you would kill me,
and you killed me.

It’s been said that Angels, don’t exist in real life,
that they’re just in fairytales, or holy creatures in the sky.

But this is wrong and I know, because I met one minutes ago,
I know it’s hard to believe, but it’s harder to let it go.

It had the shape of a girl, and the beauty of a princess,
she just raised my heart, made one from a million pieces.

In her eyes I’ve been lost, in her lips I was hanging,
she had a voice I can’t forget, whispering and laughing.

Angels do exist, but they hide from the light,
I didn’t know it until, I almost kissed one tonight.

She was standing next to me, I could almost hear her breathing,
between her neck and lips, I could not pretend resisting.

Then I moved close to her, and a magic world revealed,
when I tried to kiss her lips, everything just disappeared.

I don’t know if it was a dream, or if it happened in real life,
I’ve tried to sleep from then, and I always wake up crying.

I was just standing there, so speechless and defenseless,
I couldn’t move or rise up, I was completely senseless.

What am I supposed to feel, feel lucky or unlucky?
I feel I just wanna scream, come back and make me happy.

So Angels do exist, you can see but never touch them,
you’ll be burnt or you’ll be hurt, forever trapped to love them.

Like a tale without a fairy,
the actions that shaped your fate,
like a cross you can no longer carry,
your decisions’ unbearable weight.

For the words that have been spoken too early,
for the ones that have never been told,
for the dreams that became too blurry,
for the promises you didn’t hold.

For the vows that you shouldn’t have broken,
for the ones you were too scared to take,
for each regret that keeps you awoken,
for every loss and for every mistake.

For the tears that could fill an ocean,
for the ones that got dry before they begin,
for a graveyard full of buried devotion,
where even the saints started to sin.

For the hearts you ripped off the body,
for the bodies you didn’t respect,
for the times you became “nobody”,
for the souls you didn’t protect.

For the feelings you hid in the shadows,
for the ones that you blinded with light,
when you withered the crying rose,
for the times you gave up without a fight.

For the people you shouldn’t have trusted,
for the trust that you cruelly betrayed,
for the moments you wish they had lasted,
if you weren’t so fooly afraid.

For the roads that you didn’t travel,
from the ones that you didn’t return,
to the times you slipped on the gravel,
when you went straight and missed the turn.

For the time that you shouldn’t have wasted,
for a love that you didn’t deserve,
the forbidden fruit you shouldn’t have tasted,
now the sentence forever you serve.

Gift from the gods

It has been truly a while,
since I’m lost in the sea,
going deeper, mile after mile,
there’s no return I can foresee.

The last port is left so far behind,
warmth and calm are so long forgotten,
memories struggling to survive in my mind,
hanging from an anchor that’s far too rotten.

Storm after storm, wave after wave,
from one disaster sailing to the next,
I’ve lost too much, what’s left to save?
wandering between the pain and the wrecks.

I’m so tired, I close my eyes and fall asleep,
I wake up from the sun and a seagull’s scream,
is this the land, is it the end of my trip?
just let me sleep if it’s another dream.

The sand lies golden under my feet,
I leave the boat and I break free,
I start running, longing to meet,
the hugging shadows of a palm tree.

Is this the heaven, that I’ve been told?
Will I stay here against the odds?
And how is this place really called?
Maybe I’ll name it “gift from the gods”

24.10.2017

Are you a fool or are you brave?
Will this be your throne or it’s your grave?
Can’t you see? You’re moving too fast,
don’t forget, you can’t undo the past.

Like in a chess game.

Will you move on or step aside?
the time has come, you must decide,
think wisely, it is your turn,
once you leave, there’s no return.

Like in a chess game.

You open up, you want the crown,
you do mistakes, your guards are down,
you went so far, you can’t look back,
the end is near, don’t blame your luck.

Like in a chess game.

Now you regret but it’s too late,
just prepare to meet your fate,
you lose your queen, what a shame,
you lost it all, this ain’t a chess game.

No, it ain’t a chess game.

I see your shape again tonight,
your shadows behind the candle light,
I see your smile in the smoke,
is this a prank? Is this a joke?

I drink more wine, I raise my glass,
maybe at the bottom, I’ll find us,
maybe I should just pour some more,
and I’ll find you standing in front of my door.

What is this sound? What is this noise?
Is it a song or is it your voice?
Vanilla scents just filled the room,
why does it smell like your perfume?

The bottle lies empty on the floor,
I can see your smile no more,
the silence now holds the tone,
I close my eyes and you are gone.

10.09.2017

I’m tired of living love that never lasts,
before you feel it, it has already passed,
you think you’re sharing common things,
but the only thing that stays is memories,
I’m tired treated like a king on his throne,
but when I wake up I’m all alone,
all those kisses, those night hugs,
emotions filling broken mugs.

I’m tired of living all those lies,
I was happy at first, but now I realize,
there is noone here to catch me if I fall,
I’m just leaning against the wall,
there is noone here making that noise,
I was just hearing the echo of my voice,
noone here to share this love,
I was all alone, all along.

I’m tired of living all those fairytales,
that always end with my heart in nails,
the dreams you do, while staring the skies,
becoming tears coming from your eyes,
millions of promises, and lovely words,
are getting burried, in hidden worlds,
the beautiful moments that come with all,
are expensive paintings on a paper wall..

30.06.2009

with the white-blue dress
and a look to impress,
you triggered something in me

the lines that you choose to quote,
the way that you ask why not,
triggered something in me

your dreams to travel the world,
your thirst to unveil every word,
triggered something in me

your smile dancing as the music plays,
shadows lurking in your body’s grace,
triggered something in me

and I know nothing about you,
and I’m a stranger for you too,
but you triggered something in me,
triggered something in me..
