Bright Star

got up today feeling a bit lost but happy 
got up with a rush of feelings took me away
looked around , no one was there 
don't worry it is always this way , so , i took my jacket anD closed the door 
had no idea where to go but the wind was trying to tell me something 
something i couldn't hear clearly but it gave me a huge energy
love , passion , visions , and a loT more 
kept walking and walking sometimes running through this world 
wanted to scream and let the people know who i am 
where were all of this ? where was i ? 
i spent my years trying to impress the wrong person , trying to fit when i was born to stand tall
made the wrong decisions , shut my mouth and never had the words 
but oh if you could see me now ! would you recognize me ?
this life is so much fun full of greatness and hope 
i wish you could see that , i wish you could take off the dust 
bring colors to your world and shine up like a bright star 
that took me so long but believe me it is worth
worth the pain worth the fight and worth the stuggeles
goodbye old me , goodbye mask 
time for me to fly , i would be glad if you joined 
come up here , push you can make it 
when you do i will tell you a secret 
i shal tell you .. this is what the wind was telling me 
yeah i can hear it now ....

When I Was Born

A steady soul saves a drowning friend 
Sure and pure , with no asking she sends 
Beginning was born , we don't want to see the end 

A warm hand covers veins that are frozen
Lovers lovers , your hearts will be broken 
Destiny was born , these things are never chosen 

An angel's face smiles in this darkness
Embraces grace , she once enjoyed harshness
Until you were born , with dangerous kindness 

A living breath spreads life into bones
Health or death !? TicToc .. Find your home 
Goodbyes were born , there's nothing you'll ever own 

Dreamy eyes , close them then step away 
Hide your lies , so that truth can finally stay
When I was born , was it just an ordinary day !?

Goodbye

are you here ?? can you here me calling your name 
i feel so lonely please join me let us be the same 
do you still want me ? or did our love brought you shame ? 
 no i won't hate you or leave you or just let it go 
i guess they changed you , do you think so ? 
do you think it's that easy to forget and just move on ? 
do you think i can sleep at night when you made me believe that i'm always wrong ? 
what can i do ?i'm a believer, i thought maybe that was it 
i found my soul mate , somewhere where i can finally fit 
but you let me down again and again 
you said you don't want to see me get hurt , well here i am 
thank you lover , thank you friend 
it was a movie and now i guess this is the end ,
i know i was never wrong , i'm always right 
and you know what ? finally today i'm going to sleep at night

Is It a Chance Or Just Destiny

Her hands were cold as I touched them
I felt an absolute fear plays its rhythm 
I couldn’t hear their voices though they were loud
Am I supposed to feel so alone while I’m surrounded by a crowd ?
Whenever I started losing my faith I heard you say :
All you can do now is to pray 
It was my destiny to die
No matter how much you try 
It was hard yet I found hugging hands 
My knees were weak but I was able to stand 
So I might not be a perfect version of what you want to see 
But I can remove the dust and let you fly high and free 
I promise you I will never let go 
As long as you still want to glow 
I can’t know what tomorrow will bring 
Let’s just close our eyes and swing 
Because no matter how bad things may seem to be 
We never know what’s written in our destiny

Frozen Hell

How can someone deal with such pain ?
Who has the power to stop the bloody rain ?
Is it a flower you gave me or a gun ?
Am I supposed to stay , or to run ?

Such a frozen hell
I see you going in but I can't yell
Honey , it's all wrong 
Apologies ,I can't be strong

I've being around ache
Sharp edges I swallowed , knives we could break
But this , this hit us hard
I no longer can play any card
Enough with the game of sin 
Neither of us can win

Don't ask me who will take the blame
Either way darling , it'll be the same
So don't bother looking 
Answers are hidden
And for me dear , love will be 
Hell , frozen and forbidden.

Life

Heart breaks , love is seeking ..
Head rush , from bleeding..

I asked you to stay away from this mess .

Strong pain , try bearing..
You're awake , yet not breathing ..

Stop being always the fearless .

You choose roads that are narrow..
Happy to take any sorrow..
What are your plans for tomorrow !?

When will you let this soul rest!?

He was packing his bag again
Whispered : it's something you can't understand
Something bigger , out of my hand

Well that's you , mysterious..
Leaving , as I'm furious..
No answers to my questions
No right for objection

While I'm spending nights sleepless

I Skipped a beat as he came close
Felt the air coming from his nose
He smiled , handed me a fine rose

He said :
Life is more than a belly fed.. And resting 
More than a pillow in a bed .. Dreaming 
More than a thought in your head .. Hoping 
Life is a book to be read .. Believing
Tears that we shed .. Risking

So join me dear 
Push away your fear
You'll find me near
I'll be always here
Here I am .. Saying it loud and clear

Talking To My Mirror

Step up , hold your heart
Bring what you have left of courage
Rap up , all your parts 
I ain't letting you fall for more scourage
Listen up , sweetheart
Drop off that heavy carriage
No more staying up late 
no more losing weight
No more inhaling hate
I want to see you smile,
honey it's been a while
Since you're wearing that blackish style
Everybody's calling you a liar
Your fears are getting higher
Living with no desire
Time is your enemy
Thinking you know your destiny
Or maybe you'll be living endlessly
Bring to your life some colors
A lot of secrets to discover 
learn to be a lover 
Of pens and papers
of skyscrapers
A little girl who capers
Now step out of this mess 
Show what you possess
To the only one you have to impress
You're looking at her now, 
In this mirror where somehow
All the pieces came together
And she'll be loving you , for always and forever

Nature's Most Powerful Beast

Gravity can't pull you out
To that safe endless place 
Dizzy from going round and round
Losing your breath , standing in one place
Squeezed in your own darkness
Of thoughts and doubts
Call it that quiet madness
Making you dance on a cloud .. Raging with fire .. Taking you higher .. To that big black hole
Have you seen the end of it 
In your mind at least ?
Or maybe the start of nature's most powerful beast .
Don't you belong to space as well 
Where everything is floating free
Or were you too afraid of hell
That you created a hole to see
Everyone of us fall apart
While you're dancing in the dark
Thinking you'll never have a broken heart
Let me tell you ..
Black holes are filled with nothing
Emptiness made it grow
Stealing stars' brightness
So maybe it can somehow glow
That light will burn you down
As we watch you from this heavenly space
Dizzy , going round and round 
Losing your breath standing in one place
Squeezed in your own darkness
Of thoughts and doubts 
Enjoying that loud madness
Making you scream on a cloud .. Raging with fire .. Taking you lower.. To that big black hole
This is the end of it 
In my mind at least 
So hats off to nature's most powerful beast
