Forbidden Love

Curly blond hair staring at the sun
Striking blue eyes facing the darkness
The shade, the pain
Looking at the unforgettable
The unseen, the unlovable
She has found her feet stuck in sadness
She has found her heart chasing her love
He holds her happiness in his hand
He holds a tear in his eye
But the blond-hair-blue-eye girl...
She has a waterfall streaming down her face

The End

I have been thinking about the end
The end is al I could think of
It has been teasing my mind
It has been teasing my soul
It has been teasing my fears
My fears from the past
My fears of the future
I want you next to me
I want you by my side
By my side is where I want you
By my side is where you belong
But your happiness is trapped in my heart
And your sadness is stuck in my eyes
My soul is now freezing
My heart has stopped... 
Again
My happiness lies in your smile
Will I ever find it? 
Still, I'm thinking of the end...
But when is the start?

You Made Me Feel

You made me feel special
You made me feel loved
You made me feel important

But now all that is left in me...
A tired heart
A broken soul
A blurry face
And teary eyes

I once was the man
I once was your man
But now I'm just a man

My legs are clumsy
My lips are numb
My mind is empty

My tears are like the rain
Impossible to count
Unfeasible to predict
Unable to cease

Sleep Over

On a mattress on the floor
A warm summer night
A fan from above
And a snore from next to me

I have my best friend for a sleep over
As I have one of my sleepless nights
A night of disappointment
A night of terrifying feelings

As I think that I am alone
As I think that no one is here
As I think of what made me happy

I think of what was
I think of who I want
Who I cannot have
Who will never be mine

The pain is taking over
My face is fading
My heart is failing
My life is a game played by too many

Squeaking Swing

Sitting on a squeaking swing
Alone in the dark as I think of you
A little bit of moon light
Through the leaves

A warm summer night
Next to a tree
That's where I think of you

A little bit of clouds
Spooky as I hear the silence
But terrifying as I think that I am alone
I'm frightened as I think of the darkness 

I hear an owl behind me
I hear the summer breeze 
I feel the light wind from my left 
As I feel the cold from my right

I hear the bugs as they have each other 
I hear a party from 5 kilometers South 
I hear the owl as he has found his partner 

But yet I sit alone on a squeaking swing 

The moon is now gone
The party is over 
And the owl flew away 

My position on the swing is getting soar 
My lungs are tired of breathing 
My heart is tired of pumping 
My eyes are tired of staring at what I can't have

For You

I will lie
I wil cheat
I wil repeat
For you

I will crash a car 
I will climb Mount Everest 
I will set the world on fire
For you

I will empty the Pacific 
I will swim the whole Nile
I will move Kilimanjaro 
For you

I Found You

Chilled summer nights is where I find myself
In my arms is where I find you
Next to a cold fire is where I find my dreams
Inside a frozen heart is where I find my feelings
Anywhere with you is where I find my happiness
Your smile is my goal
Your happiness is my mission
Your success is my dream
Dare to fall...
I will be there to catch you
Try to fail...
I will bring you up and supply support
I strive to find beauty
And I found the gorgeous you
I seek devine occasions
And I saw your exquisite smile
You are the magnificent happening in my life
You are the reason for my smile
I was searching
And I found beauty
I found heaven 
I found love
I found you

Oh How I Fall In Love

Oh how I fall in love
In love with the melodies
In love with the notes
In love with the songs

With your brunette braid
Hanging over your back
Your talented fingers
As they move over the flute

As you blow your Winter melodie
I feel the goosebumps rushing over me
With the perfection created in your sounds
I feel the peace within me

The notes flowing through the air
Your eyes focused on the Larggetto sheet
The rhythms of your body 
As you turn over to your Allegro sheet music

The elegance of your body's posture 
As your motion changes
According to your notes
Perfection from breath to breath

Love and passion 
Overflowing from the instrument
As the notes on the pages magically 
Become alive through your flute

I'M Still

I feel the grind in my heart
The sadness in my eye
The heart beat in my head

I feel the cold rushing in my veins
I feel the madness in your touch
I feel the annoyance in your look

I still think about you
But you don't 
I still care
But you don't
I still want you
But you don't

You still attract me
But I don't
You still give me a smile
But I don't
You still walk away 
But I don't 

I hate myself for who I am
I hate myself for what I have done 
I hate myself for hurting you 
I hate myself for leaving you

But 
I'm still a nobody 
I'm still a nothing 
I'm still not what you wanted

I Could Be That

If you need someone to care
If you need someone to love you
If you need someone to talk to
I could be that

If you need a shoulder to rest you head
If you need a body to hold
If you need a heart to steal 
I could be that

If you need someone to talk to
If you need someone to share you problems 
If you need someone to be there for you
I could be that

If you need someone to save you
If you need someone to help you
If you need someone to kiss you
I could be that 

If you need a hand to grab 
When you're down 
If you need a face to slap 
When you're angry 
If you need a person to cuddle with 
When you're sad 
I could be that
