my heart pulled apart

there is a death inside of me
it takes me deep into the waves
the surf and the storm and the surge
makes it hard for me to see
bearing navigation becomes irrelevent
because my own love has drown me
im pulling my heart apart in pieces
hoping you wont toss me aside
and the salt water burns
my eyes and my throat
there is no land for a heart so lost
just deeper currents to swim

some small poems on loving you

i am the roots and the tree,
you are the air and the wind,
holding my branches rooted to the sun
as i hold you to the earth.
i listen to the vibrations of the curve,
you look like radial sunshine and
to kiss you is like kissing open up the universe.

-----

hold my heart, open in your hands
take me apart, then youll understand
this is more than just in my blood
it's in my flesh and in my nerves
it's salt water mist, wind blown to your hair
while your standing on the sand at the shore

already know the stories of my life

grateful dead - high time

You told me goodbye, how was I to know
you didn't mean goodbye, you meant please don't let me go?

I was having a high time, living the good life, well I know

The wheels are muddy, got a ton of hay,
now listen here, Baby, 'cause I mean what I say.

I'm having a hard time, living the good life, well I know.

I was losing time, I had nothing to do,
no one to fight, I came to you.
Wheels broke down, leader won't draw,
the line is busted, the last one I saw.
Tomorrow come trouble, tomorrow come pain,
now don't think too hard Baby, 'cause I know what I'm saying.

I could show you a high time, living the good life, don't be that way.

Nothing's for certain, it could always go wrong,

We could have us a high time, living the good life, well I know.

on our paths

we were on a star stretched plain
you were running far ahead of me
i was walking so simply
you twist around and yell at me
how did we get this far
i return your call, look how far we've come
you take one small step in my direction
and suddenly you fly towards me
wrap your arms around
you say look how far we've come together

royksopp - what else is there

It was me on that road
But you couldn't see me
Too many lights out, but nowhere near here

It was me on that road
Still you couldn't see me
And then flashlights and explosions

Roads end getting nearer
We cover distance but not together

I am the storm I am the wonder
And the flashlights nightmares
And sudden explosions

I don't know what more to ask for
I was given just one wish

It's about you and the sun
A morning run
The story of my maker
What I have and what I ache for

I've got a golden ear
I cut and I spear
And what else is there

Roads and getting nearer
We cover distance still not together

If I am the storm if I am the wonder
Will I have a flashlights nightmares
And sudden explosions

There's no room where I can go and
You've got secrets too

I don't know what more to ask for
I was given just one wish

the devil is just another way for christians to kill off other's culture

living in the universe knowing you exist

I felt star crossed
like a plot on a line
set on a distant path
my heart set on fire
self-immolating gas
to see light years
after I have left space
