Poet Introduction
An infinite attempt of balancing my heart.
Split Soul
How I am?
Oh, I am not fine!
But it's not like you want to hear that anyway.
Why not mention it, since you stopped listening anyway.
Attention seeking. Seems like I am good at that.
Seeking.
How else would my soul have so many scars?
But there are also good things...
I don't need to hurt myself,
my mind already does that job.
But if you really wanna know:
Each drop heavy. Each break petty.
Getting used.
Just give and I will take it.
I have done it for a while now.
But a break would be nice...
Maybe hit pause, or just rip the...

Ambiguity
those shadows keep
dancing
my life being lost
aimlessly glancing
but at what cost
a place like another,
speak meaningful words
no strength to follow
remaining disturbed
my longing for safety
was never fulfilled
always the backseat
opportunities spilled
lost in the motion
the emptiness sings
broken with caution
for selfishness stings

Right Or Wrong
I wake up asking
Father, oh is this right?
Why is it so hard to hear your voice
and keep on fighting the good fight.
You know my desires and all my dreams.
Introduce the unexpected,
cause life is never what it seems.
Lord, I want to be so close to her,
but if this is not what you want.
Why do I keep pushing further?
Father, your love for her is indescribable,
so much bigger than mine could ever be.
Forgiving us the unforgivable,
you came down to set us free.
I wake up wondering
where will this lead?
I chose to...

Tragedy
My heart cries out like a fallen tree
grown with aspiration,
but never reached its full potential.
Struck down and burnt is where you find me.
Like the sun I have risen and gone down again,
but my sun rays have become empty,
and my warmth lost its warmth.
And this time lost in time makes it all feel the same.
And if this life's become a melody,
will there be someone to remember me?
I feel like all that there is left for me
consists of jitteriness and tragedy
grown with aspiration,
but never reached its full potential.
Struck down and burnt is where you find me.
Like the sun I have risen and gone down again,
but my sun rays have become empty,
and my warmth lost its warmth.
And this time lost in time makes it all feel the same.
And if this life's become a melody,
will there be someone to remember me?
I feel like all that there is left for me
consists of jitteriness and tragedy

Pivot
Feel the tension rushing through your veins
Breaking free the anger you contain
Frustration echoing in wrath
Throws you off the righteous path
Shouting words you should have never said
straying from your intentions, a fault, mislead
Shatter your life in front of your eyes
Burning thoughts lost their disguise
No turning back
no longer the same
mistakes stain black
to wrap in shame
A thousand feelings burst and flood your head
A million lies that are blurring the truth you fled
You're alone, the silent screams...
Breaking free the anger you contain
Frustration echoing in wrath
Throws you off the righteous path
Shouting words you should have never said
straying from your intentions, a fault, mislead
Shatter your life in front of your eyes
Burning thoughts lost their disguise
No turning back
no longer the same
mistakes stain black
to wrap in shame
A thousand feelings burst and flood your head
A million lies that are blurring the truth you fled
You're alone, the silent screams...

Wait
When will I find what I am searching for
a love with equal affection
a person that my heart adores
one to touch my souls reflection
a love with equal affection
a person that my heart adores
one to touch my souls reflection

Lies
When all the laughter fades
and all the things I hate
seem to determine the fate
of a forgotten bait
Loneliness runs into my heart
and every hour makes me lose a part
of a life that won't restart
and breathes the story of a fallen art.
Where is it? Deep down or upside down.
It just leaves me with a frown.
Another low will catch me and I'll drown.
the mirror hides the scars inside
it shows a shell of lies in pride
it covers everything I hide
my failure that I fear to fight
I cry but cannot hear
'cause I am deaf...

Gone
Where am I?
Between the tides,
yet torn but not
yet free but not
Where are you?
Just in my mind,
yet here but not
yet mine but not
Who am I?
nothing in you
yet not the one
just a lie
Who are you?
all in me
yet not mine
just passing by
Between the tides,
yet torn but not
yet free but not
Where are you?
Just in my mind,
yet here but not
yet mine but not
Who am I?
nothing in you
yet not the one
just a lie
Who are you?
all in me
yet not mine
just passing by

Lost Step
I see you from the distance
a picture of perfection
is feeding my subsistence
in unfulfilled affection
I know waiting will not change this
this will keep cutting deeper
and my heart will be just amiss
if I stay just a sleeper
How can I even dare to imagine
that someone like me
could deserve someone like you - I breathe in
Could you love me?
But silence fills the air.
And the nothing fills my lungs
my heart just jitters here
words taken off my toungue.
I keep these words inside
'til time turns and I'll...

Memories Lead to Unreasonable Habits
grasping my unfathomable desire
just another dream or everything?
my memories shape a desperate sting
to inject the needle of a liar
it cuts my breath, it sways my bones
it hits me like an ocean wave
pulling me into my silent grave
where death has set my grievous throne
repeat, you did it once again
and I can still not refrain
the vision of defeat
the fight within my innermost
tells me that I am already lost
as my heart stops to beat
this is the first sonnet I wrote
just another dream or everything?
my memories shape a desperate sting
to inject the needle of a liar
it cuts my breath, it sways my bones
it hits me like an ocean wave
pulling me into my silent grave
where death has set my grievous throne
repeat, you did it once again
and I can still not refrain
the vision of defeat
the fight within my innermost
tells me that I am already lost
as my heart stops to beat
this is the first sonnet I wrote
