old cigarettes and bitter black coffee a taste of discontent on the tip of my tongue closing my eyes to enter a storm of endless thoughts, a dusty brain sometimes my body feels too heavy to carry so I lay down and just stay in a strangers bed for as long as I can get away with it old sheets and red-stained walls a strangers bed became my home
Between promises and lies I found myself lost in your labyrinth of words
I desired to learn so many things
Like trusting, instead of searching affection in your night sky eyes
Like loving, instead of rushing only to control and not to lose
Like healing, instead of hurting myself and everyone I feel around
Like being thankful, instead of sorry for all the words which leave my mouth
Like living, instead of dying with every day I waste for nothing
Like living, like living like living time as easy as you do
Why do you feel so alive?
there is no space between our hands yet all I feel is emptiness promising touches holding me and whispering I am safe I am allowed to lose control I am allowed to let myself fall
while all I touch are empty hands, fading through my skin, not able to carry a single finger of mine so how can I expect from you to carry my world, while you already gave up on yours?
There is a fragile beautyĀ in the way you are gone There is an absurd pleasure in the way you left There is a broken soul who used to find peaceĀ with you And there is an empty voice which used to sing your name like a song to the stars
It is funny how things change How your name lies strangely on the tip of my tongueĀ How I absorb every single letter to find the hidden secret to why your name was so familiar once like a soulmate to mine but now fades away with your face and the peace it promisedĀ
But I canāt stop I canāt stop repeating your name every night like a goodnight storyĀ to scare the ghosts inside my chest and your spirit which stayed and still dances under the moonlight I still scream your name in my head until it feels like you again
we were, we are we used to be two strangers, two souls wandering through a world of small towns and drunken nights same days and a questioning mind of when there will be a time of passionate lovers, red roses and thirsty kisses and here we are now 9 months later two lovers, two dreamer wandering through the same world fed up from kisses, and drunk of desire we found what we wanted yet loneliness: even lovers can't fill all the empty spaces they carry within themselvesĀ
You are so terrifying and beautiful to love I am so afraid and yet so full of lust Let me call your name every second of the day until it will become a second part of me
the past; a secure space I hold in my mind easiness laid on our skin now it is dust we got old in just a couple of months I miss these new felt days where kisses lasted for hours a new touch opened Ā a new thirst our smile reflected in each other eyes we used to find passion in an old bed and dirty sheets Yet today; the present promises pain, we found insanity in the soulmates we tried to be
I want to discover freedom rename the emptiness inside of my mind I start to understand that nobody ever said emptiness had to be filled to enjoy, to feel, to be it`s only an assumption a comforting picture the feeling of feeling fulfilled. we are used to fix and fill and fit get uncomfortable around unknown, around space because we desire comfort which isnāt freedom in the first place so at the end of the day how can we feel free when we try to fill ourselves only to avoid the void inside of us Isn't it the empty blue sky which let the sun enlight the day? Isn't it the open dark sky which let the moon guard the night? why don't we use the free space and instead of calling it emptiness letās call it freedom instead of calling it loneliness letās call it independence instead of searching let's call it finding
So tell me
how can you
love someone
and don't care at all?
I was your place of calm in the night You left me broken and abandonedĀ I wish I could go back, standing strong in the corner of your heart But now I am broken, shattered into a million pieces, ripped out Only left are my splinter in your skin
I want to go back in timeĀ Be fixed, stable and loved again Not standing in the rain, soaking the water into myselfĀ and feel my wooden heart swallow
Stop feeling sorry Stop feeling disgustedĀ Look at me and remember the past The number of nights we spend togetherĀ But all I see is you wishing for something new A new place of calm in the night
I canāt sleep without you without feeling your resting body pressed against mine I am awake and so are you By breaking me, you lost your place of calm I am broken and you are restlessĀ We did not think at all
You can blame me for my weakness But wood is not meant for eternity And no matter how much you crave for something new I will always remember the nights we shared The calm of your breathĀ whenever you were about to fall asleepĀ I would be there to catch and hold you until the morning sun arrivedĀ
But that's not on me anymore And even when I am gone remember me remember our nights, dreams and smiles Just a moment before you fall asleep remember the comfortĀ we used to find and the love we used to share
about thoughts, time, losing and finding, feeling and living, falling and healing and of course bittersweet loveā”
