Uno

I seem to have developed a morbid fascination
Of being alienated from everyone
Someone shoot me

Singular

How many strangers do you have to meet
How many old friends do you have to see
How many lovers do you have to sleep
To know that you're all alone in this world

1+1=1

I learned something in school today
Basic geometry: two halves of a circle
You and me

Damn prelims
You've left me high and dry

Flying So High

Like whispers in the rain
You sweetly sing over the plains

And the mountains in reply
Echo their joyous strains

a smile worth a million charming words

Hannibal

Often we ask ourselves questions
Tales of defeats and futile attempts
Fallen heroes maybe

We scorn impossible
Mock adversity
And yet we laugh at the destitute
Celebrating in triumph
Only to be marked by downfall

And just like the rain
Are we to keep falling
Only to rise and fall back down again?

If this is of any indication
Of an invitation
To establish communication
Then I think I'll disconnect

Morning Glory

And for all the glory
She ran outside
With her shirt tucked in
And shoes untied

Dancing in the rain
Her golden steps and precious smile
She sang of celebration

A tribute to her rebirth

She had fallen in love again

Ciao

So long luckless romance
I turn my back on you

Girl leave your troubles behind

Come on come out
The weather is warm
Climb out of that rut
There's so much more on the outside

I saved you a spot in the shade
Away from it all
We could sit and watch the sky
Shifting and shaping
Like a painting coming to life

And as the clouds roll by
Girl leave your troubles behind
Come on walk out get out
You'll do just fine

One More Night

Walk me down the street
Sit me on your front porch swing
And baby sing me something sweet until I fall asleep

Forget

Stop thinking so much
It's pointless sleeping with the past
Nothing was rational
Logic will only break your heart

Sunday, July 15, 2007

Hello

Passing conversations
Broken thoughts
Hey there lonely
Are you feeling cold?

Polaroid

Picture this:

That's me next to you
And I wish I could stay there forever

snap

Mr. Ambulance Driver

How if...

I broke my head and broke my legs
And even after all the things we've said
Would you still be there by the side of the road
Waiting for me to breathe?

Sweetheart

Eyes of summer
Touch of gold
You were beauty’s revelation
An angel in flesh and bone

Your smile eternal
But our love ephemeral
I’d say I’ve missed you
But could you say so too?


you were

Emotional Parallels

Cheating lovers
Misplaced trust
No one's an angel
Maybe only just for a while

Smiles and laughter
Sweet love for one another

The joy, heartbreak and recovery
It's all in the ABCs of growing up

Have you yet?

Conclusion

Conclusion:
What was thought to be destiny
Is now mere memory

PS.
But it doesn't mean we can't create new ones
Not to mention wonderful ones as well

Arcade Machine

Old and forgotten
Left in a corner
This arcade machine
Is played no longer

There was once a frequent player
Who played with such desire
The high scores remembered her name
Forever entered in the hall of fame
But now her smile is missed
The buttons her kiss
Where did she disappear to
This young miss
Was it boredom
Or tokens
One can only wonder
As she left without reason

Old and forgotten
Left in a corner
This arcade machine
Is played no longer

I saved you a token

Questions II

Often we are left to ponder:
The issue of love

To some it’s a feeling
Others it’s often misleading

Lovers say it’s forever
The heartbroken cry never

Some rejoice: It’s a gift from above!
Others cry for it’s a curse

To the young a new dedication
But more than often, mere infatuation

Some would give their life for love
While many others take their own

And so I wonder
How love plays with the hearts of Man

So wonderful yet cruel the next

Time Parade

Absence felt
Faces vague
Presence missed
Feelings fade

Thoughts race
Questions flood
Doubts compound
Pressure piles

Time enslaved
Partner forsaken
Memories erased
Love forgotten


time makes a fool out of us

Questions

Yes I wonder why
We are the way we are
And why
We can only love from afar

is it really you?

Slip

With buried heads we forget
All of the past and its regret
One last chance is all we’ll ever get
To redeem ourselves and make amends


make them pay

Mortal Struggle

Images powerful
Impulses strong
Massive suicide dreams
The feeling warm and long

Do you hold on or let go?

Wednesday, May 02, 2007

One

One heart made of two
One life: me and you

Friday, April 27, 2007

Plastic

A tragic waste of skin
To try and save your swollen face
The needle and damage done
A painful reminder of what should have been left untouched


oh look at her

Friendship?

Forgotten faces in a crowd

the test of time

Imperfection

Try and take a picture
Through a dirty window
Try to touch your shadow
Fading when you follow

What We Are

Let's play all out
Before it’s too late
Isn’t it enough
To prove today’s the day

Remember

We were so young
Out of control
I bought the dream

The one you stole

Oordeel

He stands before them as they judge his life
His shadow reaching underneath
They will question his belief
They will shatter all his teeth

Blood from his mouth and darkness he can see
His suicide is love reborn
And hanging from a noose in secrecy
His mind and spirit will divorce

Ipocrisia

Handshakes and fake smiles

Do you?

Spero

From time to time
Hope seems but a foreign land
A distance we cannot reach
A language we cannot speak

We're on our own

Sourire

Promesa

I'll be here
To ease your every fear
To dry up every tear
And if you need me
I'll be near

This I promise

All We Ever Want

Sometimes I wonder why we are the way we are
We spend our days watching the door
Spend our whole life waiting
But we don't know what for
Even though we have everything we need right here
Still all we ever want is more

To dream and to adore

Bleak

Open the curtain
Let some light in
It feels so grey
The world got smashed to pieces
And got put back together
The wrong way

When it rains it pours

Sights

See the shore light up the night sky
See the beach swing summers high
August shower after heat
Smell of rain on dry concrete

Feel the air turn cold around
Watch leaves fall and blur the ground
Wet roads slide cars slither by
Catch reflections petrol the sky

watch with me side by side

Sin

Shallow lust
Like a drug
Lose control
Actions irrational
Consequences inconsolable


don't we all
