when we will have tried
all the limits of this life
we turn to silence
when we exhaust all the paths
we become quiet and wise
when we have lived all
the pains and sorrows of life
we become stronger
and we look deep inside us
to see through the eyes of truth

I will always be
the one to bring you roses
in the middle of
frostbite and dying winter
when your soul finds no blossom

blood floods the lonely
heart, the blue sea of silence
and the eye closes
on distant sunsets of soul
dreaming of one day of light

sadness in our heart
black shadows all inside us
learn how to silence
the voice of sadness inside
let us elevate our soul

keep waiting for you
I have just seen your shadow
in my memory
smoke covers the face of the
last pieces of broken dreams

life is like a flute
it has ups and downs , holes and
some imperfections
but if you know how to play
it can be a symphony

seasons of tears
are expanding in my heart
seasons of darkness
come after the light at dusk
thinking of you I wither

drifting in the night
stretching my hand to reach you
trapped in misty dream
I always see your shadow
Phoenix rising from ashes

childhood flavour is
apple pie and happiness
unspoiled strong scent of
cinnamon and brown sugar
and Heaven in mother’s smile

I am
forever
lost in
my dream of
sweet childhood
no fears
and worries
just sun
laughter and
enchantment
light child
undying
shine upon
my bright face
and my eyes
if this
was a dream
I wish
it could be
eternal

on the small fountain
little bluebird drinking and
dreaming of his love
morning sun laughing over
blades of grass dressed in pure shine

time has passed my love
you, smiling, wetting stamps, and
me, sticking them on
a memory card that was
ment to travel back to us

I only take time
once a day to think of you
it might not seem much
but it’s twenty four hours
that this moment is lasting.

death creeps in our veins
from the day when we are born
struggle and fighting
life is just an ilusion
life is made of shuttered dreams.

the most important
things a father can do for
his children are to
be caring, attentive and
completely love their mother

Star shine on your wings
gold dust on your tiny feet
adding to your grace
when you take your time to eat
flower dew and nectar drops.

Stay with me always
in this pure sweet harmony…
Run away sometimes
but always come back to me…
What would I be without thee?

Everytime we touch
I feel my fingers burning
everytime you go
I know your heart is bursting
summer sun is upon us.
