Swedish Eyes

Life and Death at the Station Cafe (death, conflict and life)
Book III: Life
Poem III-6: Swedish Eyes

Even after a tiring
Long hard life
In the late hour
I wake up
Not to sounds
Not to storms
In the black darkness
You bring me back
From the fading away heart
To the beating of the wild
To birds transformed into angels
By the brilliant light
Coming from you
Stronger than stars
A dream in the night
Where the only existences
Are your
Beautifully bright
Wonderfully shinning
Swedish eyes.

Poem III-5: Open Heart

Book III: Life
Poem III-5: Open Heart

I faced everybody
Holding nobody
Sharing with none
The tears and the pains
Of the regreted words
Of the forgotten names
Of the rejected
Whose love remains

You spread your wings
Lightened the darkness
Warmed my life
Delivered happiness
To my eyes
Thus, only
And only to you
I opened my heart.

Poem III-4: Beauty in Time

Book III: Life
Poem III-4: Beauty in Time

Eternal beauty
Penetrating eyes
A changing face
Facing
The changes of my time

Internal beauty
Changing looks
An unchageable gaze
Chaging
The faces of my time

External beauty
Scratching surfaces
A wonderful memory
Confronting
The beauties of my time.

Poem III-3:Sometimes - A Good Life

Book III: Life
Poem III-3: Sometimes - A Good Life

Sometimes I loose my balance
Sometimes I loose my control
Sometimes I loose my step
And fall into a hole

Sometimes I feel like dancing
Sometimes I feel like singing
Sometimes I feel like crashing
And get my ears ringing

Sometimes I am just alone
Sometimes I am just myself
Sometimes I am just happy
And exist like no one else

What a good life!

Poem III-1: A Song She Sang When She Woke Up

Poem III-1: Supper Dupper Winny Winner
(A Song She Sang When She Woke Up)

This is a rabbit’s song
Sing it at your favorite tune
As you go along

No matter
Trouble awaits
No matter where you walk
Rubble’s on the way.

This is a rabbit’s song
Sing it at your favorite tune
As you go along

A hunter’s silence
A fox in the alley
A plastic tomato
Dinner for the kids in the valley

This is a rabbit’s song
Sing it at your favorite tune
As you go along

No matter
Trouble in the sky
No matter where you scape
You will find a crazy flie

This is a rabbit’s song
Sing it at your favorite tune
As you go along

Big as an elephant
Hungry as a snake
A plastic tomato
Lunch for the spider in the lake

This is a rabbit’s song
Sing it at your favorite tune
As you go along

No matter
You will hop(e) the troubles away
No matter where you fly
Today is always a better day

This is a rabbit’s song
Sing it at your favorite tune
As you go along.

Poem II-15: Freedom!

Life and Death at the Station Cafe (death, conflict and life)
Book II: Conflict
Poem II-15: Freedom!

Heart half past
She recovers a soul once gone
Nothing but the stressing
Of love undone

Away fast
She takes to the happy run
A thing keeps bodering
He faked like no one

Life’s die cast
She realises she is alone
Something still remaining
Like a musical tone

Free at last
She feels it in every bone
Everything he is wanting:
Alas! She will do it on the phone!
