Mere Words

Thunderstruck in a clear sky.
Out of the blue worlds collapse and
leave us shattered and beaten.
Not a word uttered with
malicious intent.
And yet you've been hurt
by mere words.
Tears flow and fall as gravity
pulls them down.
Down to the ground where
I lay, fallen in despair.
Desperation in fear of losing you.
Losing the only world that I used to know.
Mere words can make you fly,
make you happy and take you high.
Mere words can make you fall,
and leave you to die.

Without A Thought

Aimlessly I walk the path home.
Left feeling hollow by the things inside of me.
Thoughts running scared inside my scarred head.
Trying to persuade myself that all is fine.
Embracing the maddening sounds of
the sanatorium within my soul.
I'm one with the pain,
one with the intense missing feeling.
Ever since I left her at the station,
my heart still longs for her.
Even the brightest dawn seems darkened for evermore.
I'm left with feelings I can't ignore.

Derail

Dusk takes over the dying day.
I hesitate...
Should I move on and leave you behind here?
The train awaits all who are boarding,
and I know I don't want to go.
This feeling of goodbye seems so final.
Like saying farewell to the dying.
I feel lonely, walking to the train.
And yet she's right there beside me.
The sunset over the sea fills my heart
with regret.
Wishing I could stay just another day.
I take a long look at her and savour
the sweetest embrace.
And for just a moment
I completely believed.
I felt she was the one.
And the next moment it's all gone...

Napkin Reprise

Unintentionaly I find myself again in this place.
Years have passed since I've been there.
The feelings have faded into the dead
memories in the back of my heart.
And yet it somehow feels like yesterday.
The days you were still there to call my own.
Where the torment of these sounds
were muted by your sweet presence.
How you preserved my sanity in a place
I could not grasp.
And somehow it still feels so good
to see you again.
Still saving me without a word.

Irreversable Truth

In that darkest shade of grey
where I had lost everything I've ever known,
where I find these dead memories.
In those godforsaken times
without purpose under a grey veiled sky.
I stood alone in a world so cold
where passion had been lost
and all the trust was gone,
for way too far and way too long.
Nothing to live for.
Nothing to fight for.
On my own,
a dying ember.
And emptiness fills my dreams.

Clouded Mountain

I still feel your last kiss on my lips.
And your words still linger on.
As I hear the wind howl and bring
the clouds near.
I see the mountain vanish into a mist
as if it was never there.
Yet I feel that you're there,
somewhere waiting for me
the way I want you too.
As the time draws near my sorrows disappear.
My shadow vanishes in the approaching light.
How I long for your sweet presence, filling me up...
I sit and stare as the time leads me closer to your love.
The only reason for my existence.

Different Roads

It wasn't always so.
This story has been told before.
As we walk all alone
in silence, dark and cold.
Lost notion of what once mattered.
Failed to apprehend the reason of what went wrong.
As we walked two different roads,
alone.
Now that they crossed it all feels wrong.
Certainties fall which I used to linger on.
As the heart plays its tricks,
the mind dwells off to a place thought lost.
What was once considered bliss
cast out in forgetfulness.
And the way I now feel
is but a shadow of a distant memory.
