I feel like a place people go to bury the love
they don’t want anymore, to plant things they know
they don’t have the time
to tend to.
And I know that I am more
than the sum
of all the people who could not love me,
but I am always quick to forget this.
In my sorrow, every fresh goodbye sounds more like an “I told you so.”
I hear it in the sound
of my own voice.
You said “sometimes people aren’t running away
from you,
they’re running away from themselves.”
But it never feels like that.
I see your good shoes stuck in my muddy earth.
I see footprints
stretching out away from me
and nothing else.

Ending of
Love was like a parachute fall. We were both on the same plane, flying over paradise. Secured at the door and waiting for a sign. But the sign never came, so I jumped anyway, hoping you would follow.
Love was like a parachute fall, but you left me fly alone. Now I have landed in paradise, wishing you were here, and you’re long gone, piloted by your own fear. Don’t come to look for me again, there’ll never be the same place, time or even plane.
The wither love
Every day in the enclosure of my dream world.
I hope about you every day,
that you will live the life you´re keen of.
The words that have been left unsaid,
the deeds that were left unforgiven,
the proofs that took my pride and yet
nobody answers or received it…
Some day you might just know the difference
of who I were and what was I to give you.
Some day I might not mind the distance
and the cold you left for me to fear of.
Someday the wind might gently whisper
something of a faded memory
and somehow you will suddenly remember me
inside the warmest sunrays that I am now sending..
And if this memory becomes a smile,
and if this smile becomes a heartbeat,
I hope it fills you even for a moment or a while-
so I will know this love has never wither.

Hiraeth
You were fond of feeling my face on your palms
And I would automatically hold your hands
Now I’m lost, with no hands to hold –
My hand will always long to touch you
In a room full of people I love
Or on a busy street with strangers
During the rush of manic Mondays –
My eyes will always search for you
I crave the sound of your voice
Even with the hectic schedule
I still pause in the middle of it all –
My mind will always wander to get to you
My life ,you’ve changed when you came
And after you left, I will never be the same
I tear a little at the bittersweet realization –
My heart will always yearn for you.

Love that sets free . . .
With a smile I accept all your blames
I will not show you my heart burning in flames
If you have suffered anguish and pain
No one noticed my tears in the rain
For I know beneath that anger lies a caring soul
Who has played the most important role
You have redeemed this lost soul of mine
Taught me that despite the pains life is fine
I don’t care if you see me as a blatant liar
It can’t get worse than burning in the flameless fire
I accept every pain and anguish with a smile today
Because of your love, my life has been filled with an ethereal ray
For me love has no boundaries of beginning, middle or end
It is not like any other feeling which follows regular trend
It is enough for me that I love you, and you cherish me
My love has no borders, it is meant to relieve and set free
You to feel and think as you wish and go where you like to be
But know that, you’ll be carried in my heart always as a part of me…
