Love and Change

Here's an old one I found today... I think it must be from around 1999/2000

Smart and strong, bold and quietly loud. I was a raging storm,

a world unto myself.

A hundred tunes may I have heard, a million words spoken. A sea of lands I have seen and a book-full of eyes read. World I saw, and worlds I became. With every move, ascending futher.

Every move made with the same innocent, drawing, power.

With every move knowing more and having less

until I sensed and unknown you.

Something about your unspoken word, something about those eyes. Now the same melody sounds somehow different, the same old light brush of your skin lingers longer on mine.

I realise

When you're in love every tune has a song and every song a meaning

Every look has an open secret and every word a hidden passion

Every touch has a desire and every kiss has a perfect promise

I realise

Love makes me blind and yet opens my eyes like never before

Love binds me and still sets me free

Love steps up to me, and still brings me down to itself

Love is a contradiction, but also an affirmation

Love is change

I realise

You will leave me changed.

We're all the same

You see them. Oh so fine and mighty.

So confident and funny and smart. Oh so perfect, so likeable.

But underneath all the grandoise

We are all the same. We're all meek creatures

with the same needs.

All with our emotions and insecurities and egos.

We all need the same things. Love, attention, confidence. And all pursuing the same goals.

Happiness and satisfaction.

No one is greater, no one is better. We are all just human.

All just meek desperate creatures.

A restless soul

From somewhere low in a small room

A pen writes the loneliness of a soul

It beautifully structures into words

All the feeling poured into it

The ache of a heart,

The emptiness of a soul

The hopelessness of hope

And unwilling surrender of dreams.

It writes about ambitions and aspirations

Past losses

And plans for future success

It writes with a vision to one day have a reality

that will meet the written dream.

Best wishes to the pen and the restless soul.

In your eyes

In your eyes, in your eyes

I see laughter and honesty

In your eyes, in your eyes

I see fear and insecurity

In your eyes I see

The truth that makes you, you

In your eyes, in your eyes

I saw your soul and knew.
