Far beyond the ability to love
and to deep in the selfpity to forgive
I shudder at the thought you may be my boss
or even my pastor
you smile and fake
and put on airs for my sake
I regret you lost your heart
but mine is big enough for us both
life is sweet and sour
and full of twists till the last hour
for life can be dark its a road i gladly take
to live this life heartless is a mistake
A man is sleeping in a bed
Sleeping , when he should be awake
Evolving a body in coldness, when he wakes up
Emotions of a curious mind
Kind thoughts of a distant happiness
Ears stretching to the childrens laughing outside
Rules of eternity struggles with his lonely mind
Sanity´s sanctuary is the longing of his heart
Swimming in oceans of philosofies
Embracing the Hope, when he´s looking at the sky
Enough faith to let the hope grow
Killing old selfpity of the past
Irresistable in his affection on humble hearts
Nagging novice noise is far away
Glad, when he finally found the right ways at last
