WORTH IT ?

to learn,
could that be
the only thing
to do down here ?
maybe,
we need a little lovin’ too!

both these, no matter how
fucked up your day has been, yet again
can turn it all
into a good evening;

the two as one
or just by themselves
can save your day yet again

and in the end when these are all you have left,
in that moment of your dying, you know !

and it is worth it !

THE WIND

the wind, throwing me in every direction,
teasing my soul to drift
away with it.
swirling all the energies around me,
telling me not to worry about things.
let go
come and fly
the worlds between seen and unseen
your will becomes you vehicle

years you have been waiting
for this union
wind and fire
taking away the crucifix
find your fix in another place
why not start with you heart
no blame to give,
none to take
look for the cause
not the symptoms
drift away on the wind

ONE KIND OF A TRINITY

speaking secret tongues
and unknown languages

that is what it seems to me,
when looking at people's faces
whilst they are listening to me

people are strange,
not only in the rain
whatever;
can it all really be going down the drain ?

they said:
love me two times,
one for tomorrow and one just
for to fucking day

but why not make it three times,
to make it even again
complete the trinity, once more
just one of the ways, it could start one day
could start that way,
a new, freshly born memory

TEMPTATION

truly enjoy
tempting the devil,
but oh why do we seek out
what used to be
the most beautiful of all angels,
until fallen.

tempting the devil
brings you close,
shows you
your own limits

if you’re not up for the fight,
you could end up
dying,
that is if you are willing to

DIE

and I ain’t yet

A MODERN JOURNEY

the old ways, the ones
of the earth
swinging in harmony
with the new ones,
of the sun

to find the balance
could this be our generations'
quest?

bringing technology
into harmony
with the planet's survival
uniting old and new
to become one
advanced life
of awareness and respect
lived by the highest
of standards,
at the greatest ease,
on the way
to perfecting this being.
still long ways to go,
many obstacles to pass.
the will to survive
and a voice of reason
can take you there
led by your inner guidance.

DEATH, MY FRIEND

death changes us all,
when you feel it
walking beside you,
sitting just behind you, always.
you can turn your head all that you want to,
you won't catch more than a glimpse

or when you have let him,
take you all the way,
you know something
inside of you has changed;

the understanding
of all this beauty that surrounds you
lets you breath deeper.
feel the connection
between all that is and has been
and inside us all
it just waits to be awakened,

and sometimes it waits
until the moment,
right before you die
and in the very end
when it all begins
you remember everything

MEMORIES OF A CITY

walked your streets
at day and night,
you are heaven and hell
in the same, sitting there
like a chess-board,
waiting for the figures to move

decadence thriving of
people chasing dreams,
and yet you behold
a strange peace
in these early morning hours
when you almost slumber
and your skies glow
this greenish tone
just over the mountains
surrounding the plains
on which you rose

desert sands, on which
the pyramid sinks
the fastest,
the perfect show,
the banker inside
the holy shape

death is no stranger
to your streets,
often called upon
by broken dreams and greed
but as he is fair to us all,
coming for us all, when our time is right
so you bewilder my senses,
uniting dream and hell
on an ancient desert plain.

"UNTITLED"

a heart, not of stone,
but surrounded by it;
cocooned in coldness,
hardness, ni unbreakable

inhaling you three times;
threw your spear,
fractured the walls on the first,
on the second,
small crumbles came falling off,
on the third,
the spear touched the centre,
out came a ball of light,
warm and soft;
yet with a might and force
unspoken off
nothing of the stone is left,
just a heart, glowing
of your light

still in  haze,
it all just appears to be
a little lighter,
brighter at least to me that is.

 

SHIFTS

sudden bursts of energy,
shifts, influencing everybody
but few are those
to chose, to see
where it came from

they used to be sporadic
and mild at best
now you can feel
them crawl up your spine
raping your mind
letting out the animal
in you and everything surrounding

The only time that remains
is now
what is your choice ?
LIFE or IGNORANCE
and it’s pretense of bliss ?

CYCLES

I have died,
and I have been reborn
nothing has changed in between
and nothing is the same

I was a stranger
and now I am even stranger
than before

have I changed ? Absolutely;
no going back
once you bought the ticket,
took the ride
all you have left, is the experience
on which to decide

no worries, no lingering
once you realize;
life is beautiful
is when you become aware of
yourself and the world
to dream again is to be free again

another dreamer in a land
where dreams have long been lost

GIVE ME A NAME

Nothing as pure, powerfully
connecting , lifting you higher.
making you feel this energy
another leaves behind
in an empty room;
holds through heaven and hell
a bond over thousands of miles,
not to be strained,
unbreakable
nothing as pure as this feeling
I have yet to meet,
the true one

WIZARD

the wizard among the thieves,
perfectly fitting in like a lizard,
the illusionist playing the games required
not to be spotted,
recognized for his true being.

wield a shield to keep,
the ticks and leeches
from sucking life's precious
energy dry

stealing one from another,
what is out there in abundance,
life itself and the force that keeps it all going,
makes you breathe.

THE DISTANCE

The distance, between me and myself
is growing.
the me i used to be
slowly turning into myself.

the distance between myself and the rest
is growing.
close they used to be,
slowly turning into a faint memory.

the distance, i do not mind
just that others can't see bothers me.
they choose not to see the change
and still pretend to be close to me
twelve miles high and away.

TWO IN THE MORNING

it's two in the morning,
lack of sleep
burning eyes
too tired to fall asleep

a state, not of sleep,
and not awake,
balancing on the edge of
consciousness and reason

turned my days
upside down
still, happiness
remains in a balance;
unknown to the walking dead,
kissed all over
and yet emptied shells
is what remains thirteen.

THE WAVE

one massive freakshow wave,
gently sweeping over us.
dreamlike states of mind,
heavens floating right here
on this very level
of thriving decadences
dances,
driving by pounding beats
pushing the envelope
bending the rules of logic and reason
intuition is all we need,
for the next level

SINKING SHIP

No panic on the titanic,
we’re all on the same ship,
slowly drowning

and yet we do not panic,
quietly going about our lives,
awaiting our demise

refusal to give up illusions?
oblivious and too self centered are we?

could we make the choice
to rise from our slumber,
no more sleeping beauty
just waking awareness
