When I was younger I wrote some poems just for myself. Since I really like writing lyrics about how I experience life in this world and how nature effects all of us and our environment I will also share my reflections in a poem collection called "In The Ocean of a Sea". Here you will find some poems about big and little things that makes me happy or just reflections of life .
"In The Ocean of a Sea"
1. 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, an 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

2.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

3. 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

4. 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 cuorage to take
that leap of faith
Although it`s the hardest thing you`d ever done

MORE ABOUT ME
Music is a big part of my life but there is also room for other forms of creativity. I sketch and paint whenever I have time and I also enjoy building things with pearls and thread. Take a look in my gallery below.
To create has always been a part of my life
