    See Broken Lost

    See Broken Lost

    See Paradises before they are lost,

    Willfully Tenderness now reveals,

    And understand what is rightfully most

    In sudden Glimpse of the Age that all steals.

     

    Robbery this may you force undertake

    Travelling, that is of Dream so born,

    Fly, as if flow, and run as if rake,

    Scream of that Joy like an angelic Horn!..

     

    Open Eyelids and Eyelashes – and Crown

    Let be for Thorns that to anticipate

    Is here your Spirit, in Craziness drown,

    Sunk in the alien Madness’s Gates.

     

    Entering it, held the Keys on your Heart –

    Demons angelic are barely near:

    Mad and Insane will in Fight fall apart,

    You only rush – no back looking, my dear!..

     

    Memory now – Technology of

    Overwhelmingness grasped on a Brink,<...

    Amazing View

    Amazing View

    Amazing is Feeling

    That’s massing a Mess,

    Unwillfully pealing

    Both Forehead and Chest,

     

    In Waiting exhausted,

    Protruded by Steps

    On Tips, as if roasted,

    On Toes, as if Gaps!..

     

    A Maze let enjoyful-

    Ly enter this Life:

    Emotions yet posted

    Will soar and slide,

     

    And, moving right forward,

    Acceptance just gain,

    Which, yes, is so awkward, –

    But not to disdain!..

     

    Let’s welcome the reason –

    Right here, hurray! –

    All dazzling and chiseling

    In Universe spray!

     

    A Mess in a Row –

    That’s Progress, what’s new?! –

    And Nothing is growing,

    Evolving in View!..

    to be or not to be

    Is the last good girl dead or is she still playing
    In front of the fire with her guitar, swaying
    You might not believe one word I am saying
    And you maybe would laugh because I am still praying

    For the girl to get back her broken love
    To get it back like it was
    Before

    Because in her heart nothing has changed
    She's still torn between heartbreak and pain
    And the spirits she evoked can't be tamed

    Two men down and the curse is reversed
    Can a life really by preserved?
    Or do you have to die to be finally free?
    That's the question of to be or not to be

    my life's mission

    I never thought I could like a German guy
    In a way like that
    But you were different
    Unconventional
    I saw it in your eyes

    Just a girls' night in the city of Magic
    Deep talks about future plans and wine
    Guys and beer around the corner
    Oriental music
    And a game of darts to join the fun

    I hardly ever saw eyes so beautiful
    I was mad at you because you told me you fancied my friend
    Could have told you she would ignore you
    I turned your baseball cap around
    And you started to see me

    You told me I am a good actress
    And it means the world because it's a confirmation for all I learned
    You liked my playing skills
    And just when I got ready to tell you my life's story
    They played protectors and dragged me out of the bar

    I must admit it was 5:30
    We could have talked on but you got my name
    You probably t...

    amen / amsterdam nights / that's life

    I was sitting on the rooftop terrace
    With a Margarita from the bar
    Looking kind of lonely
    And you were there from out of the blue
    Or out of the dark

    Just a guy from South Carolina
    A Dad of two girls and married
    Showing me pictures from his youth
    And Amsterdam nights turn real
    And American Dreams come true

    You're way too cool to be alone
    You said and I'm like, that's why I had to find ya
    Come on, let's make this night the most fun we ever had
    And you take me to the coolest club in town, spend all your money for this supreme view down
    And I guess being good to you can't be called bad

    I just don't see why I should be like all these other girls
    So narrow-minded and stuck up in their world
    Feeling too vain just to talk to you
    And why should I like these guys for their youth
    When I'd much rather be with you...

    smoking

    You're just like a cigarette baby
    Burning my skin at one touch
    My eyes fill with smoke as you talk to me
    Baby I just love You too much

    enchanting

    Counting the days until I see you again
    How can I make it through 710
    Times of waking up without you
    And our favorite color, turquoise blue

    I still see your eyes looking my direction
    And everything about you is simply pure perfection
    I sigh as you run your hand through your dark hair
    That you have a girlfriend is just so not fair

    Oh fate, please take me to Milano
    Fino a quando non parliamo
    I'm grateful to know you, if even I can't see you
    Because, Marco, it was enchanting to meet you

    24

     

    Dealing with losses and recurring pain
    An aftermath, remnants of the pouring rain
    You may have changed, but for the better?
    Damn, now you even care for the weather

    Straight out of hell
    And a million stories to tell
    Didn't know if I would get up again
    After I fell

    After half a year
    And tear after tear
    My heart broke again and my head was spinning
    But I sensed the games were only just beginning

    So many new people and places
    Leaving broken heart shaped traces
    You'll find that one is many
    And true love is two a penny

    Enjoy life and live it
    Know your best and give it
    And keep wanting more
    Of what life offers you when you're 24

    boring / adore you

    You said at 7 and I was too late
    Your taxi was ordered and you've gone away
    And I don't have enough money left to pay

    I am walking the lonely dark Czechian road
    What would I not do for you
    Hoping that the next car won't slow down

    Am I out of the woods yet, the road is getting curvy
    And the car lights are blinding me
    My short skirt reflecting in eyes I can't see

    I send you a message as I step up to the Resort
    You guys still there?
    Me too

    You find me in the hallway like always
    And I step in, taking my place next to you
    Making me feel sophisticated and protected

    Until you leave me with your two stoned friends
    One last glass of rosé and a cigarette outside
    And we are out in town

    Partying in different bars
    Escargot and Grease, dancing lessons on the floor
    Take me as I am

    raw stone

    Ask the light if gemstones are pure
    Crystallized to the core
    You are the Diamond under my skin

    I shed my cover to the bone
    In every country a lover
    All that's left now is just a raw stone
