Disclosure

Bounce words of breakable bricks
turn the light to pitch black dark
and off

Burst the bubble of naked thoughts
keep them wandering through gloom
and night

Crowd the space of insufficient laughs
that rieks of tainted feelings

Tear the pages of overwhelmed hearts
lose its tears fainting in blue

State the mind of incapable disillusions
leave it searching for

(A)maze

wandering through a maze
of false conclusions
pebbles resembling lost hope

paths that have been walked
still being walked
without remembrance

a turn before a turn
looking back to where
did I come from

all that looks familiar
but different in some way
leaves me stepping forward

wondering
what lies hidden
behind the other bend

leading me further
closer or no where near
a final destination

A dreamer's dream

I used to dream a dreamer’s dream
filled high on life in the sky
my bubble grew in days, months
even as long as years it lasted

reality low at my feet seemed
as untouchable as perfectly true love
my glaze over crystal clear horizons
made no need to wake from slumber

but pressure at these altitudes
changed circumstances for the worse
with air thickening from inside
all was to wait for the final bang

down, down till I fell towards the end
of a made up own actuality
waiting for the creation of new illusions
in which to crawl and hide away

Amore per sempre

Mannen, ik snap het niet

Je n'ai comprends pas

Ich verstehe ihnen nicht

Guys, I just don't understand

zitten we op een ander niveau
een vervreemde denkwijze?

cannot seem to level
up to your playing field

Spreek verschillende talen
maar niet die van jullie
of jullie die van mijn hart
dat fluistert met de wind

One specific

I just said goodbye
but all that remains
is a feeling of
incomplete closure

No broken heart
only emptiness
from nothingness
that was (n)ever there

Indecision
it was an itinerary
chosen to be walked
all alone in the end

While all continues
to move along
I feel stuck to
a feeling
a moment
hope

With no basis whatsoever
still clinging to hold on
to your soft touch
which once captured me

In the end got too attached
without any intentions
to ever do say or feel like
I love you, I do.

Untitled

I used to cry so easily
now not a single tear
will roll down my face

thinking of you
won’t even break the waters
only fills up the sky

at a zombie state of mind
eyes that stare empty-shelled
I’m creating my own demise

the open ending
leaves little space for me
to look past the present

whilst decisions lay in other hands
I don’t even dare to look
at the newly turned over page

Droomwereld

wanneer je ogen zich opensperren
het loslatend met een uitademing
vervaagt een geschapen beeld

proberend het vast te houden
maar wat overblijft toont zich als schim
nooit meer helder als een werkelijkheid

mysteries van de ochtenddauw
wat er in de donkerste uurtjes van de dag
van binnenin heeft plaatsgevonden

voordat de eerste zonnestralen
herinneringen van de nacht doen vervagen
grijp het vast, als een laatste strohalm

schets de contouren van de nacht
op de blankheid van een pagina
het vastleggend als eeuwige herinnering
