take away

Take away my brief memories

Make me forget the unimportant things in life.

Take away the unrealistic, to-good-to-be-true version of me,

Make me realize what counts.

Take away my sorrow,

Make me feel happy and overjoyed all the time.

Take away my excuses, misinterpretations and losses,

They’re fake, and not worthy.

 

Take, take everything until I die,

So everyone can see my true soul. 

Take off the masks I wear in different surroundings,

To show me who I actually am.

Take away my clothes, underwear, make-up, my accessories,

Show the true beauty of the heart.

Take away my hair, my eyes, ears, nose and mouth,

All the inessential things that blind you from seeing me.

Take away my hearing, scent, taste, my touch, my sight,

All the inessential things that blind me from seeing you.

Take away the interpretation of me being tough and egocentric,

Tell me the truth: I am not.

Give me back my smile, my bright eyes

My length, hopes, my positivity

My happiness, my sadness,

My dreams, memories, creativity

Give me back me, myself,

A hug, a wave, a kiss

This is me.

memories

People change
so do thoughts.
But on the unguarded moments of the future
memories come, those of the past.

They hunt you down,
no mercy
create total chaos in the mind
like a wild storm.

And hope awakes
hope for return
of those times in the past
together.

There isn't enough distraction
to block out the memories and they come,
create a craving so deep
craving for the past.

Craving for someone, something
craving for just a call or a message
yearning for a hug, a kiss
yearning for you.

'come back to me'
is what I want to say
things will change
is what I want to shout

I want to hold you in my strongest embrace
never let you go
kiss you with the sweetest kiss
so show what I feel

tell you that we'll be fine
that everything will be right
as it should be
but it won't.

it takes two to form what's left of us
not just one
and hope and patience will always take its part
for now, tomorrow, ever.
