Music

An existence without music..

So much wonderful thoughts that would have been lost!

You hear a piano, a violin and your soul fills with happiness, warmth, some scent..

You look out over the landscapes

and becomes one with nature

You feel the wind at the beach

and becomes humble over the mighty trees

and your inner self is filled with happiness and a light that shines so bright

You are one with universe

Your chest is bubbling over of a sudden happiness.

The contures becomes sharper, stronger, more forgiving.

It is you, earth, the woods, the sky, the stars and the planets

It takes you everywhere and nowhere in an endless universe

You think about the end

Where do you go?

What is the destination of your final journey?

Will you just vanish?

The thought makes you frightened

And yet not

You realise that life is so short

Just a tone from an instrument that slowly fades away

And the world is suddenly so beautiful

You flow away between planets and heavenly bodies

Somewhere there is a life, a miracle you can`t see

You just know it`s there

You become one with nature, the sky, the stars, universe, everything...

A small light on a mighty sea

One ackord, one instrument can give you everything and nothing

A world of dreams, an escape from the outside

Comfort from a loss, a warm happiness, tears and joy

The music lives within you.

So embrace it

It is only yours

Alive

Was I ever really alive

In this beautiful world

Did I really see the birds arrive

Did they really sing for me

Did we really touch infinity

in a second of a time

Did you ever really know me

The heart inside my shell

Did you ever really see me

Or was I just a glowing star

Fallen from the darkest sky

To guide you from above

Did I ever really feel the wind

And the chill in the morning rain

Was I ever really wide awake

Was I ever really alive

You

Your eyes reflects the most beautiful soul

They are like heaven and stars

Blank and unwritten

Waiting

Where will life take you

Over sharp edges?

Over silent seas?

To the shadow of a valley?

For a second you are mine

But time is an enemy that takes you

further away from me

You grow stronger while I become weaker

But you are mine now

In your eyes I see eternity

For you are mine now

In this moment

And I shall love you

Home

I hide from the outside

To see a new day

With hope in my heart

I'm passing the threshold

And leave this world

I stand on the edge

Of a peaceful world

Heaven above is waiting

The meadows is vast

Waves in the ocean dance

I feel the water of a raindrop

and I see the sun through the mist

I sense the grass on my fingers

While I'm running free 

I build a house of memories

And awaits the night

Nothing can hurt me

I am not afraid

How I long for this day

How I long for this night

This moment are forever

And I hear

The sound of life

The sound of silence

And I finally see

I take a deep breath of fresh air

I am safe, I am Home

The Hardest Thing

Turn around now and leave

Although it`s the hardest thing

you`d ever done

You have walked this path for so long

Been what they expected

The child, the sister, the woman, the mother

No more chains

No more lies

No more deceptions

That is not you anymore

You have grown so much

But you keep loosing yourself

You are locked with the past

Don`t know who you are anymore

Although you are tired

Although you are afraid

Find the courage to take

that leap of faith

Although it`s the hardest thing you`d ever done
