Every guy has a dream girl.
He'll talk about her all day.
Tell you how beautiful she is.
Tell you how she sends a shiver down his spine.
But if that guy tells you one day, that he likes you.
Even though he keeps talking about that dream girl.
Deep down inside, you're all he wants.
He chose you.

The Fray - look after you

I looked to the stars and asked for an answer.
I sent out questions on the wings of pigeons and doves.
But the never came back replied, only empty handed.

I stared at the stars more and more.
And every night my heart became heavier.
The eye bags beneath my eyes revealed it all.

My heart hangs on a mere thread.
My mind longs for freedom and peace from this whole situation.
I need something to live for.

And I looked to the heavens no more.
I looked ahead and before me.
I now ask you:

Will you let me be there for you?
Because I'd like make you my reason.
Not just because I like you that much, perhaps I even love you.
But more importantly, because you make me want to be a better person.

The road down under

The sky turns grey
And the colours fade to dullness
My eyes seem to have lost
Their lustre for the variants
Of colours that precede them

And i walk, not talking
Down a path i've never known
Yet again, it keeps me thinking
Where it will bring me
But the hope and excitement
All seems to hollow

I look in the mirror
And i see reflections
Of a few, not many
But a few, they are enough
To remind me of past, present and future
The many facades i wear to
Dance in the daylight
An actor of situations
A chameleon of sorts
And i look to the other
The one in the dark corner
Nearly hidden from my eyes, i say
I can't love you anymore
You stole it all

And after everything
I feel like
This time, this place
I feel i'm laying under a tombstone
Buried 6 feet under
Resting in a coffin

A last year

Last year
I fell down a hill
I thought of taking a few pills
But i got ill

Last year
I went up a mountain
I tried to breath in
But i couldn't feel a thing

Last year
Just felt so empty
Without you

freedom

The smells of roses today seems bittersweet. Just a few days ago, I took the time to look at them and so I decided to pluck one off the rosebush and take in the scent. It smelled sweetly pleasant but it wasn't lasting or strong enough - at least not for me.

Life might bring many adversities onto mankind but love has brought many pains to me. I let the pain define me and maybe that is why, I see pain like a dog on a scent's trail. But it also sticks to me like a curse, because somehow there is a black hole inside of me and it pulls and seeps in those painful feelings from others and imprints them in my memory. No man or woman, should be put through such a torment. For having to bear with one's own painful memories is burden enough, but to feel and remember to pains of everyone else is the road down to a painful, godless martyrdom.

There is no release for me. Or maybe there is, but it is only those few moments in my lamenting life that I manage the strength to muster some hope. I fear that soon, my greatest hope will be my own undoing. That pathway lays open for me everyday, but I wish not to inflict more pain upon my loved ones than I already am - or should.

And when i lay down in my secret place
i dream of you like as more than a fleeting glance
but it is all a dream for the later days
and dreams keep me moving on
but they also bring me down
for in secret i am burning
like a gleeful prisoner that finds freedom
for i wish to be free
of my prison of solitude
and in my secret prayer
i pray to not be dreaming
that you come to set me free
