Time Stopped at Sunset

Boats are sinking into sunset’s sweet red wine

We don’t have enough time but we’ll be fine

Stars are shining bright stroking waves with light

 The warmth of the day is slowly turning to night

The heart is spreading wings and is about to fly

It travels like an arrow through the sky

Where the surf is moaning and drowning in love

Where two boats are drifting far enough.

Don’t fly away, don’t fly away

To far off sea with magic bay

Our day is gone, it is homebound

To God’s forgotten anchorage ground

Where wind will marry boats and the sea

Where a candle is burning for you and for me.

The whispers of the wind are all good-byes,

Sky’s bathing in the sunrise, time slowly dies

The night has swept off your sweet dreams

Hopeless is attempt to come back to life as it seems.

The heart is spreading wings and is about to fly

It travels like an arrow through the sky

Where the surf is moaning and drowning in love

Where two boats are sinking deep enough.

Don’t fly away, don’t fly away

To far off sea with magic bay

Our day is gone, it is homebound

To God’s forgotten anchorage ground

Where wind will marry boats and the sea

Where a candle is burning for you and for me.

Do You Feel Me?

So it's a rainy day out...somehow rain makes me feel today...

Do you feel me? 

I am so close that fingers get seizures

As if the cold air were heavily breathing

Without you I am glass shattered to pieces

Without you I am surviving, not living.

Do you feel me? 

The pulse has skipped twice in a minute

Experienced doctor is shrugging his shoulders, bewildered

Without you I am a thirsty desert, whining and grieving

Simply surviving, not entirely living.

Without you I am feverishly pouring rain,  

Do you feel me getting under your skin 

As if I were seeping into every cell of your being?

Do you feel me?

The prolonged gloomy morning is leaving.

You are here, completely within me.

The One

You know, at some point in your life, there comes a person who makes you feel all warm inside.

He makes you feel as if there was no sparkle in your life without him. 

He gives you a sense of freedom, yet a profound sense of belonging and you always want to come back to him. 

He brings romance, fun and friendship to your life like never before. 

You get goosebumps on your skin and butterflies in your stomach when you think about him, and no matter how much you try to fight it, you know you’ve fallen in love with…the way he makes you feel. 

You feel alive at  every breath he takes and every heartbeat but most of all, you feel truly blessed at having him in your life. 

In him, you find a friend, a playmate, someone to confide to and someone who keeps you on your toes. 

In him you also find that one person you can’t do without…and also the one person that sometimes gets too much.

This person is every girl’s worst nightmare and also her most beautiful dream.
