When we two parted

When we two parted
in silence and tears,
half broken-hearted,
to sever for years,
pale grew thy cheek and cold,
colder thy kiss;
truly that hour foretold
sorrow to this.

The dew of the morning
sank chill on my brow
- it felt like the warning
of what I feel now.
Thy vows are all broken
and light is thy fame:
I hear thy name spoken
and share in its shame.

They name thee before me,
a knell to mine ear;
a shudder comes over me
- why wert thou so dear?
They know not I knew thee,
who knew thee too well:
Long, long shall I rue thee
too deeply to tell.

In secret we met
- in silence I grieve
that thy heart could forget,
thy spirit deceive.
If I should meet thee
after long years,
how should I greet thee?
With silence and tears...

[Lord George Gordon Byron]
















Gone

Torn, twisted, angry
- life at it’s worst emotional level.
Mind games ... torturing each other.
Violent words spoken,
hearts breaking,
tears of anguish as the final word
spells the deathblow to this relationship.
Gone ... out of my life.
No backward glance,
left alone ... to pick up my shattered heart.
Left in solitude to mend my broken spirit.
Time alone to heal my mind,
to rid myself off the nightmare
... we called love ...

Returning

This is my returning to innocence,
my returning to purity;
a life without you
- without tears and sorrow.
I found myself
lyin’ in fades roses
and realized a feeling,
just deep for one moment.
Then the magic touch
made me fall
down to the ground.
My wounded heart stopped breathing,
I stopped breathing.
My shadows,
injured nudity
was hiding
in the wold beyond
but with a cold shining sun
on my back
and an underhand mud
under my feet.
I went back home,
returned to calmness,
sweared fidelity forever
to myself.
… And now,
at the end of everything,
the beginning of every other thing,
I’m standing here on top,
feeling the wind on my skin,
the sun in my face
and also a warm egoism within my heart.
Smiling at the past,
looking forward to a new suffering ...

Deep within the heart

...Begun with a single spark,
grown to a steady flame
deep within the heart.
The fire so vasting,
the hot tears we were tasting
gone cold with the time
and only the smoke still reminds
of the fire we once burned in.
Now it has turned in
the ashes we swallow,
chilling us right to the marrow.
Begun with a single spark,
remains a glowing pain
deep within the heart...

Rose

You say your heart is empty
but your eyes are full of pain.
All the sorrows in your inside,
they are just too wild to tame
and no matter what you try,
it's just what they say.
If this life is stalking
you will always be the prey.
Walking through a garden full of roses
everybody sees the blossom
but you just touch the thorn,
familiar with the hurt it causes
'cause you're the crying-born ...

Disillusioned

I can hardly believe
that we are apart
and you don`t know how I grieve
that all is lost forever and can´t be made up.
I can hardly believe
that I will never lie in your arms
and that it was just an illusion
to receive some affection from you.
I can hardly believe
that I have to live without your love
and I wonder how I can breathe
when you are the air to me...
