Like Wet Fingertips

I bid you farewell
Your staying has been far too long
It was supposed to be temporary
It was going to be for a very short time
You coiled me like a preying animal
Lured behind each door
When I saw a light you shut it
Like wet fingertips on a burning candle
When you first came
You gave me comfort
An excuse for myself
You were my companion
When no one else understood
But then you gradually took over
Held my mouth with sticky fingers
Squeezed my soul with iron arms
Pinned my feet to the floor
Covered my eyes with darkness
You coiled me like a preying animal
Lured behind each door
When I saw a light you shut it
Like wet fingertips on a burning candle
I bid you farewell
Your staying was far too long
It didn't become temporary
It was for a very long time

An Echo

THE ECHO
An echo surrounds me
Disables me to think
It fills my head with hate and anger
What is this that fills the air?
An echo surrounds me
Disables me to feel
It fills my heart with solitude and grief
My love I cannot share
An echo surrounds me
Disables me to function
It fills my arms with led and pain
Leave me, please
This is not fair
An echo surrounds me
Disables me to live
It fills my blood with poison
This is more than I can bear
A silence is around me
I think I’ve lost my mind
Disables me from hearing
Makes me deaf, mute and blind

I Walk Backwards

I WALK SLOWLY
I walk slowly backwards just to meet you halfway
I understand it is not easy to be aware
Of that your life is nothing but an illusion
Merely a feeling of despair
The stars that lighten your path
Shows the shadows from your hidden days
Makes you remember what you’ve tried to forget
Dark faces through a shady haze
You have to remember that it was impossible
To live a life in complete
You know it would be incredible
To live a life without repeat, repeat, repeat…
I walk slowly backwards just to meet you halfway
Helping out picking up the pieces of your life
The pieces you lost on the way
Over and over again

The Ones That Are Gone

The ones that are gone
________________________________
Poor yourself a glass
And drink it with happiness
Poor yourself with wine
And you will think about
Those who decided to leave
Those who decided to die
Look deep into your glass
And you will see the past
Look deep into yourself
And you will feel the longing
After those who decided to leave
After those who decided to die
Lets raise our glass
To the ones we lost
Lets raise our glass
For those who are gone
For those who decided to leave
For those who decided to die
But let s not forget the ones
Who left unwillingly
Let s not forget the ones
Who were torn from our hearts
So let us raise the glass one more time
For all who have passed on to the other side
