My Own Path

They say forget
They say let it go
They say don’t be mad
Just follow your own road

Get what you deserve sounds in the contest
Leave all your dreams behind, be as pale as us

I don’t want to follow this path
I’ll make my own through the walls of glass

To climb high or fall down
Is up to me, not anyone else
Which road to choose narrow of wide
Is only my choice

Through the mistakes and falls I go
Healing the scars and ignoring the pain
There is no easy roads in the world
But the wind will carry all the tears away

I make up my own rules
Don’t tell me what to do
This is my choice, my road
Follow your own one
Don’t try to look into one’s heart
You never know what’s hidden inside

I follow my own path
I build my own road
To reach that I caress dear in heart

You Sing In My Dream

You sing in my dream
Bringing sweet scent of spring
In my grey world
Of neverending cold

You bring me a dream
When everything seems hopeless and torn
You still sing

Petals of spring dance in the wind
Golden sand caresses my feet
Warm embrace gives me a hope
For a better blooming and sweeter world

Your eyes are like midnight sea
And smile is a rare gift to be seen
Your heart is the greatest treasure to keep
Meaning the whole world to me

You sing in my dream
Bringing warm wind of spring
To ever cold world of my real

Hope

We follow our own path
It weaves every day
Or stays straight
True way lives deep in heart

Hopes flow like daydreams
Passing by with spring petals
All the songs and poems flow
With the melody playing deep within

Our souls are bound
With a word, with only sound
Our lives are entwined
With red thread tied around the heart

I bear the hope where left nothing
Writing nowhere all my dreams
I write the lines to be heard once
Hope brings another breath of life
Another beat of heart
For a soul hoping to stay alive

I know you can hear me
Once or never, it doesn’t matter
None can take away a dream

Echoes and Shadows

Untold feelings dwell within
With swirling cold
Burning deep

I’m going insane more every day
Because I cannot say
The words that dwell within
Burning deep in me

Years I spent longing for shadows in the mirror
I’m so tired, please carry me back home
Every play has an end
This act’s final chord is played
Forever gone

Echoing deep the pain left
I feel it still inside
No more games
Take care of a tiny heart

Loving you is a painful pleasure
Hurting deep and sweet
Cannot reach looking through the mirror
I see the only treasure
I’m afraid of this feel
But I cannot run away from who I am, from this love

Loving you is like creating a new world
Like kissing the brightest light
It’s never enough
Yet more than I can keep in heart

Please hear me
Take another step
Feel the song within
It’s not a game

Direction

I know it’s wrong, but I love you
I know that it’s hard, but I cannot control it
It’s getting harder every time I see you
To ignore the feelling within

Say it once
Say “come closer” or “get lost”
I can accept it
But not this eternal waiting
Say something
So I can move ahead
Give me the direction
Lead me
As I’m so lost without you

I ask silently in the night
Will you respond
Though the answer is silence
So I go on with my hope

It’s getting harder every time I see you
To ignore the feelling within
Not trying to reach you

Say it once
Say “come closer” or “get lost”
I can accept it
But not this eternal waiting
Say something
So I can move ahead
Give me the direction
Lead me
I won’t leave you

You are the one, I feel it like the wind of spring
Like a sweetest dream
I won’t give up my feel
I’m sorry for loving you
I won’t leave you

Spring rains fall with petals upon the ground
With silver bell-like sound
Covering old scars with velvet blanket
Whispering “it’s still not the end”

Don’t let me fall
Don’t let me fall
Don’t let me fall

I leave the past behind and climb higher
Even if old days seem now brighter
I look at the stars and believe
Once we will meet

Make a wish beyond the starfall
Look in my eyes and hear my inner call
Don’t let me fall

They say you will know when you feel it
Like the real turns into a dream
The whole world dwells in awe
I knew this feel as I saw you

So I open my heart to the world
Staying on the edge bare, vulnerable without my shell
Take it or break it, I don’t care anymore
Just don’t let me fall
As I fell into you deeper than I could

Path of Dreams

Chasing the shadows
I follow the path of dreams too high
Sinking deeper into it all

I sing into the dark when none is here
The only song
Hoping with all my heart you can hear
This silent call

If they only knew
How deep I’m in love with you

I surrender all just to see you Once even from far
To live it all through
But it could never be enough

If only they all knew
How much I love you

I forget all my pride and heart
To give it all to you
Take me, I have nothing to lose
But not to look at you from afar
This I cannot stand anymore
As you are my world

I surrender it all
Just hear my call
In silently dwelling song

Thoughtful morning

Good morning everyone. Sometimes I’ll post here also some thoughts, not only poetry.

This week was very long and stressful, and I hoped to relax a little bit during the weekend. Pretty much I did, but not as much as I hoped 😄

Though everything is fine more or less. Sometimes I fall into dark depression, but try my best not to give up. It’s very important to know that there are someone who supports you no matter what, that you are not alone. Though you still have hard times. When this happens to me I try to find little things that bring me joy. It may be a chocolate, cup of coffee or something more expensive like a piece of clothing or earphones.

I even don’t make plans anymore. No plans for future during these dark times. Life is unpredictable, so I just keep on flowing and don’t think about anything. It also helps a little bit to survive like this poetry blog. I write my poems for one special person. I don’t know if he ever reads them, but I bear a hope in my heart he will.

I hope everyone has a good day ❤️

Red Thread

Let the words weave into a red thread
That will bind me and you
Let the wind bring you a song that I’ve sent
My heart beats with yours
With every written word

I sing under the stars
Wind caresses my face gently
I watch your dance
Keeping it within like a dearest memory

Words weave into lines
Lines become silent rhymes
I whisper then through the night
So you can hear my heart
Beating for you wherever you are

I sing under the stars
To send you a call, a silent song
I look at midnight sky
And whisper to you that you are not alone

Chance

I feel it within
Like in a dream
A tiny thread, but strong bound
From heart to heart
I feel it’s real

I feel it like you look at me
Through the dream into real
My everything, my dearest thing

My thoughts, my heart I open for you
Thousands miles to go
Just to touch not only your soul, but you
I believe it can be truth

I am bare before you
With open both heart and soul
Take or break — it’s up to you

I cannot hold it anymore
Cannot bear it alone
However you believe or not
Hear me now
I surrender it all
Just hear me, my love

A chance to have a hope gives me strength to live
To breathe and move on
One only chance to see you not in a dream
For this hope I surrender it all
