A Dame

As a stranger you came
Through the lights
And the flame
There you came
As a danger
Ain’t afraid of the game
There you came
To my suffered soul
To my wondering aim
There you came
You held me tight
And said my name
I ain’t gonna fall
For i am a dame
There you came
Hold me tight
I can’t stand the blame
I ain’t gonna fall
Eventhough i am tired
Eventhough i am lame
But if i fall
Would it be a shame?
For i am a dame
And i am not the same
As a stranger
Through the danger
Oh, there you came
There you came ..

Snowman

He said what a nice snowman
I said thanks
Then smiled and ran

We met a gain
Just like the rain
Without having a plane

I knew his name
He played my game
Eventhough the ban

As we were walking
I noticed that his eyes were deep and tan

We wished the ever snow
Before the rain had began
Oh snowman
Have i fell in love and gone?
Oh snowman
You are melting in the rain and the sun
Your eyes for the last time i scan
Then i will run as fast as i can
Because love’s span
Lasts like the life of a snowman..

I want freedom

Immortal

Like the sun we burn
Each time we are disappointed
When they leave and turn

Like the rain we cry
Whenever we wonder about their feelings
Whenever we love them without asking why

Songs never lie
Poems never die
They killed us once
But can we get killed twice?!
When we pay the price

Like you i will be
When you come back wounded
One day you will see

Like you i will be cruel
No doubt one day i cared about you
No doubt i was a fool

And songs always lie
But poems never die
They never die

Lucid Forecast

Do i love you?
I can’t answer that fast
To me your love is strange
And i predict it might not last
But will you truly love me?
I can’t forecast
I won’t leave with you
I can’t leave everything behind
Or cast
I won’t go with you
You are a stranger
And your secret is vast
My vision has raised the mast
I am fading in the future of your eyes
But what a blast!
What a lucid eyes
I can’t tell
I can’t forecast
Neither the future nor the past!

Change

Drawn
Into something strange
Not like water
Not like air
Not like a champagne
Oh Strange

Dawn
In me with a wide range
Not an art
Not a start
But it is a change
Oh strange

And i am falling and sinking
Deeper and so deep
Without wings to fly
Without air to keep
And i am not a sleep

Alone
Like a buried shroud
Not like earth
Not like mud
Not like a cloud
Unknown feeling loud
Not a bang
Not a fuss
Not a mess of crowd
Oh strange
It is a change..

Satisfied

Alone I cried
Simply i shed away Tears
And i lied
I am okay
I am alive
Feelings i casted aside
The hugs i wanna leave behind
And i am shy
Once My heart In your arms
stopped and died

I was to you so cheap
You knew where the wound is
And you just kept and still keep
Stabbing me in the same place
With every No you hurt so deep
I am feeling cold
All i want is to sleep
Like a fetus Twisting around
like a creep

I made you out of a stranger
Sculptured you into a danger
Into a dangerous steep
That once i lured in
Along my sweep
I sculptured you into my death
Into a Gravestone on my heap

I casted away dust
And i lied
I am okay
And Feelings casted aside
I have burned my ships behind
Got into the jungle of your lies
And My heart In your arms
stopped and died
There were some hugs
I wanted to leave behind
I died
And you are my Gravestone
Finally i am satisfied!

Meet me at 3 AM

Meet me at 3 am on WhatsApp
I wanna just see you online
To make sure you are breathing
I will pick and get the sign

And down to my spine
Down to my spine
I shiver from your icy heart
Where you drew a mighty line

Meet me at 3 am with your lies
I can’t get my eyes closed
I can’t breath in the tides
In this : once we crossed a road

And down to my spine
Down to my spine
I shiver from your icy heart
I am paralyzed with your wine

And down to my spine
Down to my spine
I yearn to that hug
To a brown embrace like a pine
I cry for that hug
That never happened
that wasn’t once mine 

Meet me at 3 am
looking at the same star
From our windows
Keep me in your soul as a rose
That once hurted me fine

Don’t flee I am a patient of OCD

Looking lonely that it would be..
Thinking of your face
that i yearn to see..

We agreed to meet
Along we agree..
Just to solve the problem
That we were Fighting about
I know there were so many doubts
Fake pulses and a zero degree
I wanna look in your eyes
To see us to see we !
The ones i wanted to see
The one who made us three!
In this suffocating misery
And then if i had to lose for you
I will lose..
You are the winner
You are the muse
You are the sign V

I paid my mistakes in this sickness
I paid the fee
The price of a wrong memory
I am clean now
Give me your hands they are the key
To all my crisis
To all the nightmares i wanna set free
To all the illusions in my head
Let me be me

staring into the walls
Nothing could awake my eyes
From the medication noise
But your voice
But those Small brown eyes like an old tree

On an table between you and me
An Orphan rose
A cup of coffee and a cup of tea
And you embracing my hands
over a white sheet
They say Please don’t flee
Your mama is a patient of an OCD!
