The Tragedy of Loki and Freyja

It happened in the world called Asgard
Never heard by human ears
The history of one heart, scarred
And moved by love and fear

It's the story of a liar
Loki was his name
His heart of ice catched fire
The goddess Freyja was to blame

But he failed to tell her
And she moved on alone;
Now listen to what occured
In front of mighty Odins throne:

At that time the gods assembled
To feast upon their victory -
Many goddesses hearts trembled
The cause was Lokis flattery

But beautiful Freyja, angered by this
Stood up and stopped the flatterer
Lokis pride got hurt and he hissed
And with terrible words, he hurt her:

"Why do I need to shut my mouth
When your legs are wide open?
Of all the people here I doubt
You'd find one whom you haven't loved then!"

And before anything could be spoken
He left; a lonely god again
The bonds between them were broken
A lie, told to hide the loving man

But even gods sometimes surrender
To a mighty enemy, love or regret
He still was drawn to the other gender
To the woman he couldn't forget

He arrived at her chamber
Thoughts of apologie on his mind
Just to learn that Odin sent her
To a location undefined

And Lokis world again was grey
As he cried into the wind
"Why did you need to take her away
Just because once I sinned?"

Sun In Your Heart

With the light on my face, and the sun in my heart
All the worries have gone away
It doesn't matter that we part
A part of you will always stay

With the sun in my heart, and the light on my face
I look back at the time we shared
You have left an eternal trace
With every moment that you cared

I Don'T Want To Lose You

I             hate you, you should disappear
Don't       ever want to see you again
Want       you to go away like a man
To           hear your name makes me suffer
Lose        my mind if you stay
You         should really go away

Create Life

To create a life -
That is, to give breath to blank space,
Moving a pencil, leaving a trace
Releasing the word, only to strive
For even greater heights

Some may say, they found it in love
In a woman's gentle embrace
In which twin spirits soar dancing above
Finding their dual presence to be enough
Laying their talents to waste

Some find new life through the solace of making
Working and shaping the idea so rough
In a creature unbreathing and breathtaking
A piece of metal not sleeping but not waking
Even at those I can only laugh

It is in the end the truth that prevails
That touches our heart in the waste that surrounds
That creating new life through human hands fails
But in the ink of a book can be found

Peace

Sunshine over snowwhite mountains
Golden scales in glimmering light
Waving grass and blueclear fountains
Soft moonlight penetrating shadows at night

Red petals dancing on blackburnt hills
Grey clouds shifting through the sky
Darkbrown wings creaking at cracking mills
Wounded strangers with cold eyes passing by

Raging men with red fire in red eyes
Girls in frilly dresses, shouting names at boys
Troubled mother, shouting, as the baby cries
The young king, playing with soldiers like toys

Peace, they say

Many Miles Away

You are many miles away from me
But when you cry in the night
I feel the pain like it's my own
How cold and black you have grown
You are many miles away from me

I am many miles away from you
But I still lie awake in my bed
Your face is showing when I close my eyes
I know that you can't hear my cries
I am with you only in my head
I am many miles away from you

We are many miles away
But we used to be so close together
Now we are both hurting inside
We can't hear each other because I died
We are seperated forever
We are many miles away

Last Dreams

One day, she likes to fly, she said
One day, she will die, she said
She wants to relive the day we met
She doesn't want to see the tears I shed
no, she does not regret
The things she could have had
Although she's a little bit sad
About the unfulfilled dreams in her head

These were her last words, then she was dead.

The Pair

Bathing in the moonlight
United by their hands;
Their eyes shining bright
Seperated by different lands

Soon, those eyes will be broken
Soon, those hands will be cold
For their love is but a token
To the enemy sold

And once they lie fallen
Cold faces, struck by death
Their love has been stolen
The hope they have had

So listen, kings and peasants
Remember the story I tell
It's not their love that killed them
It's the land for which they fell

Momentary Stop

lights shine
a passing time
may this moment stop
and everything will be fine
i can see the glass drop
a thousand shards, in light they shine
a thousand thoughts, and they are all mine
it's the monotony of the world that they rob
my mind is going blank, reality fades, my feelings twine
i look at all that happened, and i stand at top

...



"Wake up!"
And the time passes once again

Stay In Darkness

Far from the touch of the light
far from greed
from things we need
from things we heed
In the loneliness of the night

Why are you here by our side?
to soothe our pain?
it is in vain
we are insane
to find another place we tried

We don't want to hurt anymore
to be a disgrace
to be chased
to be erased
To stay in the darkness we swore
