Emotion

Looking through the eyes of love
I see a vision so beautiful.

 Looking through the eyes of love,
I see more emotion, than my heart may handle.

 Looking through the eyes of love,
I see how, I am capable of love.

 Looking through the eyes of love,
I see you.

Last

One last time, your heart breaks against mine.

 One last time, my tears spill  across your face.

 One last longing look, one last shared sunset, one last embrace.

 Then you will leave me one last time,

 And vanish without a trace.

                / Fini /

What Title!

When I need comfort, 
 I need to look, no further than you.

  For I will always find,
 Comfort in your arms.

  You are my world,
 You are every breath I take.

  You are my world,
 You are every move I make.

  With your hand in mine,
 I feel a power so divine.

Our Fate

Your eyes are an ocean, in which I want to drown.
 They call me. Who are you?
 They call me, you are mine.

 Your eyes are your soul, censured be who suspects.
 What did I want to say? 
 Walking together forever. 

 Love is not in our choice, but in our fate.

 So happy to love, yet so far too.
 You lead me on to where I've never been before.

 Now the dream that I've been waiting for
 Is coming true, the dream is you.

 I've fallen into the hole you say,
 Has replaced your soul.

Dream of You

Eyes so transparent, that through them one
 sees the soul.

 It took so long, to let you in.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

 In just one night, you became my whole world.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

 I can still feel your body, next to mine.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

 I can hear my name, spoken by your soft voice.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

 I can feel your soft skin, sliding against mine.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

 I can feel your mind entwined with mine.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little each day.

 I want to sleep, to dream of you.
 Because that is the only place,
 Where you now exist.

 And, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

                  / Fini /

Save Me

When you come undone,
  We will try to stay blind,
 To the hope and fear outside.

   I did not mean to fall,
  I did not want to care,
 I did not want to need you.

   You are unfolding before my eyes,
  And when you move, you move through me,
 Under my skin.

   Shed your Armour, spin your web.
  Hypnotize me with the longest stare.
 Make your promise, or maybe a threat.

   Is there room in my heart,
  For you to follow your heart?
 And not need more blood, from the tip of your star.

   Just a little breath, on the water now,
  Is all we need.

   Just a little strength, in our hearts
  Enough to heal.

   Face to face, no telling lies.
  The masks they slide, to reveal
 A new disguise.

   You never can win, it's the state I'm in,
  This danger thrills, and my conflict kills.

   They say follow your heart, follow it through,
  But how can you, when you're split in two.

   There's a night, where you close your eyes,
  Round a real dream, that shines
 Like the sun.

   Everyone knows its beautiful,
  Tell me, why you want to dream
 It alone.

   And, I say that I love you,
  I say that I need you, baby.

   I leave you all the lines in my palm,
  No shadows will get you.

   No heart will desert you,
  Nothing will hurt you.
 Do you any harm.

   And, I am lonely here, deep inside myself.
  Deep inside myself.
 Believe in the light, in me.

   I am here, deep insid of me.

   And, the ghosts I keep inside myself.
  How do they see me?
 While again, I'm drowning in my soul.

   Will you save me?
 
                 / F /
