Time

Time
is all I've got
and even though others wish
for more
I can not stand 
another minute

Time
Seem like I´m going backwards
and even though I wish
for a return
I am not likely
to find my way there

Time
trapped in a paralyzed body
and even though my family wish
for me to live
I can not find one
single reason to do so

Time 
captured in total emptiness
and even though you wish
to understand
I am not likely
to explain anyway

Time
hurts when one is waiting to die
and even though life may wish
to go on 
I can not see any
dignity in it

Can Not Say Goodbye

How do one prepair to say goodbye
when it is you whom are every tick in the clock,
every drop on the windshield 
as the rain falls from the black sky.
I can not see the road no more.

How do I say goodbye
when I can hear your soul whisper for help
softly against my tears as I hold you in my arms..
When the cruel face of pain grant you no peace
and leave your delicate lips without one last smile.

How can I say goodbye
when you are the colours of the Earth,
the light in every star and the breeze that
touches the world inside this wounded soul.
I can not find myself no more.

My voice is silent 
Your beautiful face so pale
as if snow got here early and decided 
to rest upon it
I can not say goodbye

How Do I Love You

Within the power of imagination
deepest love can go beyond the horizon
and burst the borders to the unknown.
It can climb on the shoulders
of the Universe,
cry out from the top of endlessness
and reach further away 
than the end of the rainbow.
My love is every heartbeat on the Earth
put together like a bouquet of love 
pounding for you to embrace.
My love is every amazing pattern 
on stones to be found on your path
and has no limitation in how to describe
just how much I love you.
The true face of my soul 
has been let out and shines,
rarely understood by others than you,
I love you for no reason and all the reasons.
Vulnerable I declare my foundation 
is nourished by our intertwined roots
and grows deeper by every magical moment
of our lips tasting each other.
My love is out of this world

Open-Minded

Walk with fire, burn your soul
Burn, burn
Inhale the present, face your fears
Open-minded
Taste the desire to be left alone
Sweet, sweet
Question becomes answer
No cheek turned, shut your eyes
Closed, closed
Sweet rain, frosty sunshine
Hail raging around, down on your face
Down, down
See and feel what isn't there
Complicated lies, floating words
Walk with fire, burn your soul
Burn, burn . . .

The Meaning

He who knows the meaning of life
shall dress it in words
and read it out loud.
Explain the maze and sudden turns,
how to interpret the hidden signs.
Wisely guide with simple words
so that the meaning of life
becomes meaning to me.
