POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
A valley of pain, sadness and yearning in pictoresque words. Dark, melancholic feel conveying fragile emotions, deep yearning. An intimate glance into the very darkest core of what I hide from the rest of the world. Be invited, as long as you wish...

Nighttime Lover
How can I turn away my eyes
From this face so beautiful
Just like the bright and golden sun
Enlightening this cold, wide world
In which you refuse to see me
At times I feel just like a ghost
Cause you seem to walk right through me
Even though I hold on so desperately
I always fail to reach you
As if I just wasn't there
So many tears,so many sleepless nights
Were you worth it, I don't care
I became the passion's slave
Still my heart keeps beating
Even if you chose to leave
Though when the sun has set
Your eyes...
From this face so beautiful
Just like the bright and golden sun
Enlightening this cold, wide world
In which you refuse to see me
At times I feel just like a ghost
Cause you seem to walk right through me
Even though I hold on so desperately
I always fail to reach you
As if I just wasn't there
So many tears,so many sleepless nights
Were you worth it, I don't care
I became the passion's slave
Still my heart keeps beating
Even if you chose to leave
Though when the sun has set
Your eyes...

The Escape
It's the last time I'm walking this road
Saying goodbye to a part of my life
Turning my back to forget all that has been
Reaching out for the freedom ahead
Having waited for this moment so long
I turn away from this place
Where everything's changed me so much
Walking away with a smile
These memories will finally fade
It's the last time I'm walking this road
Saying goodbye to a part of my life
Turning my back to forget all that has been
Reaching out for the freedom ahead
Leaving nothing but fingerprints back
I'll never...

The Sanctuary
Broken door plasterd in colorful paper
once past the threeshold
opens another world
shutting out reality
Between deep blue walls
candle light reflects
enclosed by incense mist
mingling scents with wood and straw
fading touch of powder and perfume
in the middle of a dozen faces
drawn in black and white
This place the city's noise can't reach
granting shelter from the storm outside
sun of brighter days won't shine
leaving me in dark
with silent emptiness
I've grown to love so much
This is my refuge, my...

Withering Time
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Lead and Blood, one for another
They come, they go
Life and Death go hand in hand
No one remembers, no one misses
They fall, they rise
Sands of time flow on and on
No chance to care
World keeps turning and turning
There'll be no end
Born to forget, but never forgive
The curse of life
Lead and Blood, one for another
They come, they go
Life and Death go hand in hand
No one remembers, no one misses
They fall, they rise
Sands of time flow on and on
No chance to care
World keeps turning and turning
There'll be no end
Born to forget, but never forgive
The curse of life

Sleep Away
Where do I go, if my feet are bound
What do I see if I am blind
From where I am now, I can't see no sky
the only thing moving is shadows
Where should I go to, if there is no path
What am I to choose, if nothing is there
From where I am now, I can reach no stars
The only thing burning is my heart
Which signs am I to follow, if I can not read
Who should I listen to if I am deaf
From where I am, I can hear no music
The only thing is crying of my soul
How to solve a riddle, that has no solution
How to live a life, without a future...
What do I see if I am blind
From where I am now, I can't see no sky
the only thing moving is shadows
Where should I go to, if there is no path
What am I to choose, if nothing is there
From where I am now, I can reach no stars
The only thing burning is my heart
Which signs am I to follow, if I can not read
Who should I listen to if I am deaf
From where I am, I can hear no music
The only thing is crying of my soul
How to solve a riddle, that has no solution
How to live a life, without a future...

Gethsemane
Moons over moons pass in flight
A hearts season may change
Spilled tears turn cold white
Among blue rose, black lilies fall
Turn your bright skies raven black
Paling scarlet clouds storm gray
Under withering olive trees
Soaking in the amber rain
Gentle arms of passionate salvation
Become a coarse wood burden
Soft words so sweetly pleasent
Judgment's biting iron binding
The flourished garden is no longer
A bone mount took it's place
Where your bleeding heart
Won't find no rest
A hearts season may change
Spilled tears turn cold white
Among blue rose, black lilies fall
Turn your bright skies raven black
Paling scarlet clouds storm gray
Under withering olive trees
Soaking in the amber rain
Gentle arms of passionate salvation
Become a coarse wood burden
Soft words so sweetly pleasent
Judgment's biting iron binding
The flourished garden is no longer
A bone mount took it's place
Where your bleeding heart
Won't find no rest
