    Memories Flow Back Too

    I go back, though

    Sometimes it’s filled with pain,

    I go back, yet

    Nothing will be the same,

    Precious places

    I first knew,

    When life and youth

    And love were new,

    I flow back, and

    Memories flow back too.

    Pessimistic sun ruins


      
        
      


    There were many, it was illegal to have a pessimistic weekday, a worn out, useless desk and a climbing Sisyphus ticket: Insufficient - mostly - and sufficient. The crossfire of promising grains of pride, and the pathetic judgment of the Inquisitions lurking in the eyes: “Let's see! Who dares to do more and more ?! ” - There was a murderous rage in the hearts of the people,

    "What did I know then: What can I expect?" "Destroyed nervous system, suicidal pessimism?" Nice promises or Janus-faced compromises? In which the victim is always his own scapegoat! "In the conscience of the people, they beat a homestead and strangled it with stigma stamps, handing it to you as the title of loser, as an honor in the camp of innocent fools!"

    There were many, it was illegal for the pessimistic weekday, many were the self-destructive consciousness of ...

    Remember the lakes

    Do you remember when we visited the lakes

    just your brother, you and me,

    We went to a hotel and had coffee and cakes

    you paddled in the shallow edge of the lake

    negociating pebbles as you enjoyed your dip

    watching the water ripple

    and the sun shining onto the lake

    making it look like shimmering silver!

    you could not have been even four

    But you enjoyed it so much 

    you just wanted more! 

    Then at the hotel you pinched my tia maria

    when I went to bar to collect my coffee

    you said it was yummy and that I did fear

    Someone so little as you

    Thats not what you do!

    But we had a lovely time as I remember 

    The beautiful lakes

    I think it must have been September!

    THE BROKEN BRIDGE OF OAK

    Golda, do you remember the broken bridge of oak?
    Lying o’er the river of the east; the broken bridge of oak
    Golda, do you remember that Autumn sunset of red?
    That sunset, I rested on that cold bed of ambers and red.
    The sun was the brightest red of all light
    The river kept flowing its gracious paths

    From here, I saw your strands of red, fluttering with this zephyr; there
    From here, I saw your nimble feet tapping grace, onto my heart; there
    From here, I saw your vivid smile widening mine as this azure sky; there

    As my cornet, that night, breathes the song of a thousand nights.
    Your feet, that night, taps to my heart, a joy of a thousand sights.
    As I dipped my feet onto this great river of the east,
    I heard your feet lapping this great river of the east
    As our feet were lapping this great river of the east.
    I felt your fingers on my heart and… mine on yours.

    Low spirits (Repost)

    As long as I'm here, no one can hurt you
    cause you'll be hurting yourself
    My unhappiness entirely came from me
    no point in pointing fingers at anyone else

    If it broke don't fix it, you leave it alone
    and let 𝓈𝑜𝓂𝑒𝒷𝑜𝒹𝓎 𝑒𝓁𝓈𝑒 fix it.

    Hurt (Repost)

    When I met you
    I didn't know you
    I was scared
    of dying alone
    Years later

    You're like a father to me
    you helped me through the unimaginable

    Even so, you found it easy to lie to me
    and ignore my wishes

    Because of this my life could of had meaning

    Now you're gone, down deeper in dirt and I'm hurt
    wishing I had more time with you.

    Realising I did have meaning
    told you I'd try to forgive you

    Didn't know I had to be

              ð’½ð“Šð“‡ð“‰

    for it to happen.

    Death bed (Repost)

    We don't seem to be dead
    we want to be dead
    we don't live in order to sleep
    we sleep to avoid living

    when you sleep, you're not dead however you're not awake

    no one can talk to you
    no one can judge you
    no one can hurt you

    until you wake up...

    Collateral

    When something is surplus

    Then there is collateral !

    Just like when I eat chocolate 

    And the stoneage rolls on,

    And the spare tire becomes dire!

    And then it's no fun! 
     

    So when something is not needed

    we just get rid!

    like the rubbish in the bin

    hidden under the lid! 

    collateral loss that's what it is! 


    So then comes the action

    That we have to take

    Eating that chocolate was a big mistake 

    Now I have to pay for it

    weight must be lost

    Collateral at a cost!

    For me there will be no cake! 

    No more chocolate 

    Make no mistake!

    Harmony with nature

     

    With my hearts eyes,

    I see the saffron and peach drawn skies,

    the blossom trees,

    and the oceans seas,

    they all dance and sing

    with those who’ve reached their touch...

    But

    Who would hear it?

    And who would see it?

    And who would feel it?

    Except they whose hearts are given to  love,

    They who won’t give up.

    -L.D.
