Songs of dust and snow

 

Ballad of unspoken love and terror 

Lips embrace touch of grace

Gone to waste got only one take

Then just float on a strange thought

So distraught endless hold

I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling

I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling for you

I’m running I’m running I’m running

I’m running I’m running to you

Cupid’s drunken low sleeping on her bow

Love’s terror show crashing your afterglow

Lovers’ frozen flow trapped nowhere to go

Ballad of unspoken love terror in your heart 

Glitter lips colour rising

Gentle kiss your uprising

Comfort’s touch you are shining

Sea of skin fingers climbing

I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling

I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling for you

I’m running I’m running I’m running

I’m running I’m running to you

Cupid’s drunken low sleeping on her bow

Love’s terror show crashing your afterglow

Lovers’ frozen flow trapped nowhere to go

Ballad of unspoken love terror in your heart 

 

Feeling

There’s no feeling like the first feeling  

There’s no anger like the first anger  

Put you down move you around

Laugh at you and break your crown

There’s no promise like the first promise

There’s no lie like the first lie

Twisting knife in a gunfight words like bullets

Breaking through the night

 

All around scream and shout there’s no crowd only you

Now this town is just a cloud and you the rain falling down 

 

There’s no hide like your first hide

There’s no night like the first night

Rusty coins flirting with the light

Your wishing well burning up inside

 

It wasn’t all right It wasn’t all right

Waiting for the tide, leaving you behind

The cold sand your blanket for tonight

This cold hand drawing your life

 

All around scream and shout there’s no crowd only you

Now this town is just a cloud and you the rain falling down 

Candles

Those candles in a poem I once read fade one by one.  

Days left us days dead. Broken pictures in your head.

Looking back with pride, no fear no remorse.  

A dim  blurry light

a ghost by your side

you have won   

Burn it down  burn it all! I don't want to

be here no more 

Burn it down burn it all! wasted candles laying on the floor 

 

Some for fear some for pain 

Some the secrets some the saints..

Some for fear some for pain and some just cry out your name. 

 

The losers game, the politics, 

all the little things that makes us sick. 

The empty nights and drunken paths 

Losing sense losing human touch  

Broken stillness falling rocks 

lake of mind drowned thoughts. 

 

Floating without you

Without you, how could I without you, it’s no lie

Without you, I just can’t follow through. 

It’s your words and your ways; it’s your steps in the nights,

It’s your thought that’s holding me afloat. 

It’s what I see when I see you, It’s what I hear when I hear you,

I’m not alone because you feel me too.

 

Without you, without you, the sun is stolen everything’s untrue,

Without you, without you, the wall is up, the sky isn’t blue,

Without you, without you, my body is broken, my heart belongs to you.

(Your cherry lips, the highest peaks, everything feels new.) 

You’re like the saints, like a star,

You’re like a prayer in the dark,

You’re my hide from everything that’s sad.

I can lie and I can run,

I can feel the loaded gun,

Oh how I try to hold you in my arms.

 

Without you, how could I without you, it’s no lie

Without you, I just can’t follow through.

 

Without you, without you, the sun is stolen everything’s untrue,

Without you, without you, the wall is up, the sky isn’t blue,

Without you, without you, my body is broken, my heart belongs to you.

 

Death is the King

I will creep inside when you least expect not this time not this time please just let me mend. 

It’s in your head just your head.

The autumn leaves a carpet for them to walk please don’t let the winter to take it all away.  

They are full of colours and they are full of life when they’re around I can see the angels fly.  

The angels fly.

In my world planes crash and people die,

lovers break each other’s hearts I can hear their cries. 

Death is the king playing with his dice holding all the cards rolling up his eyes.  

Dance me away to the oceans of calm just, hold me in yours arms and never let me go.

 

Forever

Goodbye my one I know you are gone forever.

Bye broken one a secret gun my murder.

Son don’t look back cover your tracks it is better.

Hide from the sun in the dark we’ll be together.

Run hold my hand slip away like feather.

You magic one your green eyes my pleasure.

Calm scream for calm blame the weather.

Cuts drunken ghost Italian lost not tender.

Smoke growing old better check the pressure.

I love you my shiny stars forever (and ever).
