    Hello World, this is me once again!

    Good Morning World, yes it is me again! The long lost soul back and ready for anything that this life might throw at her. Think this time off did me the world of good and given me some much needed time to reflect on what is truly precious and important in my life.

     

    I have come to the realization that life does go on whether you want it to or not, whether you are going along for the ride or just standing next to the road, hoping to God that it will stop if you don’t get in.

     

    I have learnt that reality isn’t actually as scary as I thought and that even though I never wanted to believe it … my true strength lies within! Within myself and within the wonderful people I surround myself with! It lies within the eyes of my beautiful “baby” boy whom everyday teach me more about life which I could never have imagined.

     

    In my time away I have taken up things that make me truly happy and challenge me as a person and as an artist. I am still writing as you can see, but I have taken up photography again, which at this moment I really enjoy, seeing that each shoot is a challenge on its own. I will post a couple of this and that’s in time …..

     

    But anyway, this was my hello and I am looking forward to see what all my dear friends has been up to the time I was away. Will pop by as soon as I can, but until then …..

     

    Hello world, this soul is back again ….. ready and willing for anything life might bring!

    MAI ANCORA - A tribute to "friends"

     

    I am no princess and there is no such thing as fairytales. Happily ever afters only exist on cold white pages concealing the true reality of what life is all about. Fictional words for those desperate enough to believe that within the ripples of these turbulent streams that there is something more than the hidden reflections of make believe.

     

    Certain people are destined for certain things, whilst others foolishly put aside their hearts to the benefit of others. Smile, the world is watching as your head barely surfaces for some much needed air. Soaking in an icy bath, numb yourself, the pain will eventually subside. All this after all is hopefully going to fade with time. Memories will always remain. The touch, the kindness will never again be the same!

     

    Hold on heart – just a little longer! Maybe in the end you will beat stronger, although I can feel the pieces crumbling through hands not big enough to conceal all the blood as everything you believed in falls apart. Brace yourself; this is the beginning of a lot of tears still to come. So no use wiping them off, let them be, they are going to be there till the end of eternity.

     

    Please don’t try to fool me; I am doing a good enough job of that myself. Manipulating emotions, trying to tell my heart what to expect! Disappointment for me is nothing new to begin with and trust me I have had a few. Staring mow directly into the sun, hoping its rays would permanently blind the vision of you from my eyes.

     

    Now standing here, empty, I am once again reminded of a dream haunting me for so long. All the sudden breaking sounds comes to life as I feel my wings finally snap and break under the weight of a troubled mind. Thorns tightening around my chest ripping through already scared flesh! Twisting and turning, the blood comes down streaming, as I am left with one hell of a empty space in my chest as the last haunting words appears before my eyes….

     

    MAI ANCORA – MAI ANCORA

    NEVER AGAIN

     

    Never again will I put my heart to the test

    Never again will I allow the others to see, the real person inside of me

     

    NEVER AGAIN

    World do you hear

    MAI ANCORA

    NEVER AGAIN!!!!

    He Rides

     

    he rides
    ghost
    from yesterday
    carriage
    pulled by
    dark horses
    of tomorrow

    pursued
    by blood thirsty bats
    beating
    frightful wings viciously
    flea invested creatures

    straight from
    sinister depths
    of the underground cavern

    chasing
    me back
    to the place
    where I made my bed
    a long time ago

    playing
    on insanities door step
    making
    myself a bracelet
    from
    all this pain
    carved into
    my blackened soul

    a cut here..
    a cut there
    maybe
    just one more
    for all these endless tears

    take my heart
    rip it apart
    shredding
    pieces of hope

    he is riding again…
    ghost of yesterday
    with the casket open

    looking for me....

    The Last of the Last

     

    Shadows dancing on the walls

    As the sun painfully breaks within her eyes

    A clever once off disguise

    In an attempt of sheltering her soul from all these lies

     

    Taken all that she can take

    She holds her heart very tight

    Knowing that this time if she should let go

    Her heart would forever grow cold

     

    The sunset brings no comfort

    As the flames reach towards the skies

    Millions of stars suddenly died

    In one solitary tear from her hope departed eyes

     

    Scars from a life gone by

    Could never once mute her now silent cries

    As a hand stretched out is just short out of reach

    There is no way for anyone this barrier to breach

     

    Trust lost within vast endless plains

    She lays her head down hoping this would be the last surprise

    Never once did she think that the knife of deceit would be twisted in so many ways

    By hands she once trusted whit her whole earthly life

     

    Knowing now what she needs to do

    Cut the cord and watch everything come down

    As the last curtain falls

    With no encore to cheer her on

     

    She painfully admits defeat

    Bow down and greet!

    Know now that the last smile was just for you

    As the last letter is etched upon her tomb

    Could it be any Harder

     
    Have you ever woke up one morning with a song taunting your mind? Well this one's presently taunting mine since the moment I opened my eyes .....
     
    You left me with goodbye and open arms
    A cut so deep I don't deserve
    You were always invincible in my eyes
    the only thing against us now is time

    Could it be any harder to say goodbye and without you,
    Could it be any harder to watch you go, to face what's true
    If I only had one more day


    I lie down and blind myself with laughter
    A quick fix of hope is what I'm needing
    And now i wish that i could turn back the hours
    But i know i just don't have the power

    Could it be any harder to say goodbye and without you,
    Could it be any harder to watch you go, to face what's true
    If I only had one more day

    I'd jump at the chance
    We'd drink and we'd dance
    And I'd listen close to your every word,
    As if its your last, I know its your last,
    Cause today, oh, you're gone

    Could it be any harder to say goodbye and without you,
    Could it be any harder to watch you go, to face what's true
    If I only had one more day

    Like sand on my feet
    The smell of sweet perfume
    You stick to me forever,baby
    and I wish you didn't go,
    I wish you didn't go
    I wish you didn't go away
    To touch you again,
    With life in your hands
    It couldn't be any harder

    Angel of Mercy

     
     

    Through vast endless plains she flees

    A hurried pulse from the foot soldiers of her defeat

    Following the echoes, once soundless now sweet

    Soaring low, seeking unreachable peace

     

    Cut throat pulses consumes the grinding of teeth

    As bones cracks by the sounds filled with unsatisfying release

    An angel of mercy, with a heart of stone

    Never did the masses find the gratitude she needed to be shown

     

    Vengeance now seeps through blood deprived veins

    Whilst ignorance leads the blind closer to their graves

    A pitiful demise, dropping the last of now crystallized cries

    As once angel of mercy turns her back staring mercilessly at the skies

     

    Like an old abandoned house, she sheds her clothes

    Building and braking hands never once close to those filled with love

    Rising to the heavens like a child wanting to fly

    Tearing through winds, cold as the sky

     

    Cautiously opening doors to a heart so black

    Hoping that her dark prince would one day smile back

    Innocent eyes had no idea that one moment of kindness

    Could hold a lifetime of happiness to bear

     

    Entering the chapel haunted by memories, like a portal of pulsing blood

    Embracing the blazing stars, stopping time all over the world

    Cradling the morning like no one ever could

    Reawakening to the dream, seeing now the angel bursting from her seams

     

    Grasping her heart, this prince from her dreams

    Sealing the legend, entering through life’s turbulent streams

    Softening once windows cold and hard

    Summonsing a true and eternal heart!

    And I'd give up forever to touch you
    'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
    You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
    And I don't want to go home right now

    And all I can taste is this moment
    And all I can breathe is your life
    'Cause sooner or later it's over
    I just don't want to miss you tonight

    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
    Or the moment of truth in your lies
    When everything feels like the movies
    And you bleed just to know you're alive

    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    I just want you to know who I am
    I just want you to know who I am
    I just want you to know who I am

    About Baggage…

     

    What is the first thing that comes to mind when one mentions the word “baggage”?    The word itself could represent so many different things to a person.

    It could mean a possible new beginning or just a exciting trip that you have been planning for months ...

     

    However there is another type of baggage that has been bothering me lately and that is

    EMOTIONAL BAGGAGE

     

    How many times have we put our lives on hold because of that?

    How many times have we stood back, rather than taking that one giant leap of faith because of our own fears that no one could and would understand?

    Maybe even hide rather than taking the chance that there actually may be someone who is prepared to take you with your baggage and love you regardless off.

     

    I have been thinking about mine quite a lot lately and trust me there is a lot. Somehow I can’t think that anyone would willingly take on all that. Well I am sure nobody in their right mind would. Being a issue freak, I always tend to over think things, sometimes unnecessary pointless things but most of the times huge issues regarding personal responsibilities  

     

    I would like to believe that one day it wouldn’t be a problem but sadly some “baggage” will never go away. Some things are in your life to stay, no matter what you do and finding a person who would be prepared to take on other people’s baggage and responsibilities seldom happens. Or maybe you do find that person who says he/she is ready for what ever may happen, only to end up as a disappointment to you. Knowing that their eagerness turned into nothing. Well nothing more than some false hopes and promises which you so keenly believed in …

     

    And I guess so the cycle continues ….

    Vicious, isn’t it?

    Forever and beyond

     

    If I should die before I wake, I pray to God

    He knows where my soul to take

    To the place my heart endlessly craves

    Creating his happiness

    As he selflessly created mine

     

    My savior of a different kind

    Deserving all the unimaginable delights

    From the heavens right to the grave

    The very best of both worlds

    With just one blink of the eye

     

    Finding peace knowing his angel is always nearby

    Once broken, now soaring infinite skies

    Grasping this new dawn with open hands

    Holding him close against a body protected from all earthly lies

    Whilst always faithfully keeping a watchful eye

     

    Hoping he knows that there never again

    Would be another reason cry

    With soft angles wings carrying him home

    Meticulously protecting a heart so pure

    Ensuring him that he has found his place to shine    

     

    Knowing that in the afterlife of all this demise

    They would stand inseparable

    Mightier than any human force

    Forever sealing their long written fates

    Proudly towering as the masters of the skies

    Inside Us All

     
    When I'm all alone
    And no one else is there
    Waiting by the phone
    To remind me
    I'm still here
    When shadows paint the scenes
    Where spotlights used to fall
    And I'm left wondering
    Is it really worth it all?

    There's a peace inside us all
    Let it be your friend
    It will help you carry on In the end
    There's a peace inside us all

    Life can hold you down
    When you're not looking up
    Can't you hear the sounds?
    Hearts beating out loud
    Although the names change
    Inside we're all the same
    Why can't we tear down these walls?
    To show the scars we're covering

    There's a peace inside us all
    Let it be your friend
    It will help you carry on In the end
    There's a peace inside us all


    There's a peace
    Oh there's a peace inside us all
    Let it be... Oh, I said let it be, let it be your friend
    There's a peace inside us all
    Let it be your friend
    It will help you carry on In the End
    There's a peace inside us all
    There's a peace, inside us all, Inside us all
    Let it be, Let it be, Let it be,
    Let it be, Let it be, Let it be,
    Let it be, Let it be your friend.

    Searching for some sense ??? (Ya right!)

     
     

    Something I could never understand is why does one’s misery never end? It just seems to keep on gnawing and gnawing on a person until in the end only the bones remains of a once supposed colourful life.

    I find myself time and time again looking back, trying to figure out where this life of mine went completely off-track, only to my disappointment finding that even in my darkest of days, there still is no answers to find.

     

    I am really trying so hard to convince myself that it would get better with time, but you know what I am tired of waiting. Seems like that is all I am doing lately, waiting … waiting and waiting some more and whilst I am busy waiting the demands just gets more and more.

     

    I want ……

    I need ……

    Do this ….

    Don’t do that …..

     

    But what about me?

    What about what I want?

    What about what I need?

      

     

    Seems like nothing I really cared about matters anymore, I am just a willing slave. The soulless idiot whom never will complain even knowing that her last bit of sanity is standing with its one foot in the grave. I am so annoyed, irritated with everything in my life, I feel like crying but that is an emotion I don’t express. It is nothing more than a sign of weakness and I know I am not weak, just tired.

    (Ok so maybe that does come across as the same thing, but hey, let me have my own little fantasy)

     

    I feel like screaming, actually no I feel like something else (those who knows will know) but I just can’t. I don’t have any strength left, I need to get out of this place … out of this life, while there still is something left of it.

     

    Question is how?

    Where to begin?

    And most importantly will it ever end?

     

    Hmmm …. I am not convinced

    Sweet Escape

     

     

    Take my hand and let’s go where the winter ends within these four candle lit walls, I invite you into my world once more. The soft music in the background, drowning all the outside noises completing our circle of eternal bliss. Let’s just celebrate the magical silence.

     

    Nothing else exists. For one night, once again, we meet on common ground.  Seems like it was yesterday when we first met here and yet, it feels like a life time ago that you came here with me here. I would hold you in my arms while slowly moving to the rhythms of the soothing sounds playing in the background.

     

    I will look you in your eyes, knowing that it is alright to stay. I want to hold you so tight that I’ll take all your pain away. With the stroke of my hands, I want to release you from all your troubles. Even if it is just for one day.  Let’s just stay here. We don’t have to talk at all. Just hold me close. Very close ‘cause I’m not ready to go outside again and I just realized that if I could reach into the evening sky and hold up a star for every time you made me smile… the entire universe would be in my hands.

    You really brought a new meaning to my word.

     

    For one night come blow me away. Be the light of my day. I’m standing on the edge and I don’t want to look back. Let us stand here, just staring at the valley below. Feeling the wind blowing viciously through our bodies. The freedom unspeakable. The sensations overwhelming. Just take my hand and stand here next to me. Let’s just admire the view form here. Forget everything that still has to be done. Let’s just take a second away from all our responsibilities.

     

    Your hand on my back, the reassurance I needed to know that all is still alright. Let’s take it slow tonight. I only want you close to me. No talking please. I want you to close your eyes, your ears, your mind… don’t think of any of your troubles right now. Just concentrate on me. My hands. My arms. Holding you. Cradling you like a new born. Sheltering you from all that hurts. Feel all your worries melt way as softly I whisper in your ear ….

     

    “Always remember that I am here”

    Hidden Inside

     

    Sweet scents of this dark descend

    Wakes me desirous of watching the sunlight

    Dancing playfully across your face

    Whilst your heart is softly beating at a peaceful pace

    Knowing right now your mind’s lingering

    Within last night’s passionate embrace

     

    Dreams of sensual kisses

    Filled with crazy little wishes

    As hands delicately explores

    All the curves of a hot-blooded body

    Able and more than willing

    This moment, ours for the taking

     

    Your presence, a heavenly surprise

    As my stomach turns smothered within my great release  

    Carefully tracing the outlines of your uniquely loving face

    My dark prince, my saving grace

    How could this mind ever erase

    These wondrous emotions you‘ve brought to my life   

     

    Beautiful is the day when two people rise

    Following the sounds of hearts calling to be complete

    Forever and always, our souls entwine

    Knowing no other has made them feel so absolute

    Sensing that behind those alluring eyes

    Possibly lies a soulmate hidden deep inside

    Stitched

     
     

    My flesh ripped open, cut so deep
    I watch the crimson fluid seep
    Rush for help, needle and strings
    Liquid syringe melts inside my skin
     
    Feeling the numbness dispersed within
    Book of crimes, endless files
    Faded pages, stored archives
    Silent whispers of concern
     
    Broken shards piercing deep
    A fading heart starts to weep
    Disappointment written in the cards
    Look at scars, presents from a friend
     
    Search for restraints, but there are none
    This hateful disturbance knows no end
    Coldly chained, whilst night descends
    Moon glow smiling, time has come again

    Losing Grip

     
     

    Deep within the shadows

    It lies, it waits

    It wants to feed from your dying faith tonight

    Ripped and exposed, bravery gone

    Dignity falls to the cold hard floor

     

    Torture from the past

    The gas chamber of this heart

    Loosing grip, tumbling far

    Footing lost, grasping for breath

     Demonic hands, never erased

     

    Bitter thoughts swallowing whole

    Fetal extraction of cradled emotions

    Thorns piercing dead cells, never again alive

    Presence lost, turning to ghostly dust

    Slowly vanishing from the eye

     

    Hollow, inside out

    Shattered cries, calls on times

    Whilst blades of hope cuts on memories

    Worst than the deed, needing to bleed

    Poison needs to drain … one last time

    The Redeemer

     
     

    Through stone cold windows

    Crystallized cries never pass the hopelessness

    Of these merciless ruins of no compromise

    Trapped within this deserted nowhere world, where the darkness

    Holds her prisoner in some unspeakable place where no man rules

     

    Broken angel, chained and bound to this lonely existence

    That has after so many years grown cold  

    While the ivory steps cleverly conceals the cracks

    Through which she slipped, disappearing from all audible ears

    To where she’s now ensnared with the noose tightening around her neck 

     

    A knight so white could never save her from her fate

    His amour’s far too weak for the deadly onslaught

    Of these demonic forces keeping her back

    Knowing that his steed could never make that leap

    Into a terrifying realm, where even angels dare not to weep

     

    Hands weak, she tugs at time eroded restraints

    Blood stained, cutting to the bone, she prays

    Knowing her dark prince would one day come

    Dancing through the flames many didn’t survive

    Sweeping her up on his magical dragon’s back

     

    Wings wrecked she tires to stretch, reaching from the darkness

    Needing his cold hand to bring her comforting warmth

    Waiting for his righteous blade, to show her a kindness

    Her heart’s being longing for, now laying on the floor

    Hacking through the shackles, he would

     

    Setting free the real angel within

    Soaring free to greatest of heights, unexplored

    With her darkened redeemer by her side

    Knowing that the world could never again

    Tie down two spirits now standing stronger than ever before

    Darkened Grace

     

    I am falling

    Falling straight into the arms

    Where I know I belong to be

    Playing games with you

    And you,

    Playing games with me

     

    Here’s my hand

    Don’t take it now

    Come closer

    Yet take two steps back

    It is all part of the temptation

    That keeps on luring us back

     

    Back into the lair of no return

    Where eyes never can hide

    Feelings buried within

    Building the ecstasy

    See us testing the rules

    Let’s break one now

     

    Knowing the secret of the game

    Is to see how long we can last

    As it deepens in this realm

    Where others fails to see

    What’s really between you and me

     

    The clock strikes

    Morning rises

    We patently wait for our hour of darkness

    Belonging exclusively to us

    Darkened prince, your angel waits

    Within the salvation in which we

    Found this darkened grace

     

    Knowing all is fair in a world

    Where we sit on top of our thrones

    Smiting those whom shouldn’t be around

    You and I, we are writers of our own destiny

    Paging through a book, unwritten

     

    We sit and wait

    Side by side

    To see what the future may hold

    Seeing words unfold

    As this grows

     

    Feeding from the darkness

    In which we thrive

    Counting the days until the last nail disintegrate

    Finally opening this tomb

    Setting free

    What’s really within you and me!

    August 28

    Violent Youth

     

    Timid and young, warily

    You stand alone, withdrawn

    Within the shadow of your lasting shame

    Glancing for an understanding hand

     

    The world cannot explain

    Their mortal minds looking for something to blame

    As shocked they blindly stand

    Wondering if your victim ever stood a chance

     

    Hidden behind your idol’s mask

    One cannot stop to wonder

    If it was his lyrics  

    That put you in this deadly trance

     

    Your reflection never shone

    On a samurai blade so long

    As the crimson stained drops drips

    From the smooth edge, slashing him to death

     

    Playing the hero of your own fate

    The villain broke through a delirious mind   

    Leaving many speechless

    As a young life was ruthlessly lost

     

    Your being has shut down

    Never realizing at what cost to us

    Standing now on the podium of no return

    Hoping for mercy you never shown
