To Think Of You Is To Treasure An Absent Memory
When you shut your eyes and fell asleep
Dark clouds descended on the souls of the ones
Who held you close to their hearts
Close to their hearts
My heart broke (3x)
Open (4x)
The beauty of an embrace a place
To lay down the pain
Where blood and fire bring rest and peace (4x)
I sit away in a secret place the shadow of wings
I think of you (7x)
And my heart breaks open

A Secret Place
Between life and death
There's another path
Some of us choose to live there
Away from life there's another place for broken hearts
A secret place that helps tired souls to find the peace within their selves
Thoughts and regrets all meet there
The place where I open the gate to meet the present with past
Away from crowd near to the God not dead or alive
The secret place its the loneliness to meet ourselves
Away from lovers aches
But with the memories no way to disregard to escape free
The secret place there I open my hidden aches
Away from blamers glance
My bloody wounds there take a bit rest

Flying without wings
i could surf the sky without my wings,
yes i can reach the sky with your blue eyes
moon, if only you believe in me
i don't even needs a wings to dive, when
i know that your are there, ready to catch
me when everything is on high
i know i can tell you that beyond that dark
clouds, you still awaits me in the shadow
of that sky
i can now ask, the reason why when iam
almost there i heard an alluring voice of
sound asking me to lay my wings
i know where my heart tremble, shaking
shouting for joy, for where ever i close my
eyes my ears listen to your voice of love
tell me then if my soul echo in a distance
land who reveals the melody of my heart,
and the spirit of your wings lingers on beneath
the horizon of my heaven
come my wings, fly and bring me to the
place where no wind could blew my dream
for only in you i will hold on to the sky of
dreams

Dreams do come true
Close your eyes
fall asleep
dream of candy
& sweet little things
16 min
u start to sweat
hearts racing
turning right to left
Calm and steady
All you hear
cries and scream
growing near
30 min
lost and alone
can't open my eyes
i start to see
one is taken
pain and desperation
my heart is broken
an hour later
two is gone
their ripped away
soaked in fear
the pain is too much
my body can't bare
open eyes
what a nightmare
my dreams
finally came true
If I Close Would You Open
let the Poseidon
of Greek god’s hover
my day and open my lips to
whisper the sweet embrace of your
smell
let me do
the herculean task to
make the gate of your bosom heart and listen
to my
pleading of stay, rapture the
anger that made you pave with me; since you
come to my life,
find me the way and close my knee to
vow all the luck that bends my open heart
to pray
let me do this again without
the peculiar feeling that take me in the shadow of
weird intense feeling to lie
down my flesh into the fuming fire
of love, please settle my arm in your heart
and die with you in the humid sky
where the beacon of giving taste my lips
to surrender
lead me to rest my dear and open my soul to
die without pain in memory of me
I love you

I Close My Eyes
I close my eyes hearing my heart beat.
I go deep into a place where it's only me.
I ask myself if this is a dream,
but I realize that I am not asleep
This place my only peace,
away from the harshness of reality.
No one's here but me.
There's no pain or the need to weep.
My suffering has ceased.
I am now at ease.

The 9th Circle
Is it so hard to believe the hearts are made to be broken
Can't you see that the beauty of love lies in constant times
Don't you want our hearts to be torn wide open
Won't you feel the heaven in our endless cry
Oh at least you could try
Let me just to be closer
For this one last time
Let me fall into your arms
It could be alright
Don't let us grow any colder
For this one last time
Let me close to your heart
Ever amazed how bright are the flames we are burning in
Ever smiled of the tragedies we have locked deep inside
Aren't you obsessed by our hand was on the verge of beginning
Won't you cherish your fear of life that keeps us alive
Oh at least you could try
Let me just to be closer
For this one last time
Let me fall into your arms
It could be alright
Don't let us grow any colder
For this one last time
Let me close to your heart
Let me just to be closer
Won't you let me be closer
Just to let us be closer
Oh, my baby
Oh
You gotta let it closer
Baby, let me closer
Won't you let it come closer

Oh at least you could try

Winter
Come close to me, oh companion of my full life;
Come close to me and let not Winter’s touch
Enter between us. Sit by me before the hearth,
For fire is the only fruit of Winter.
Speak to me of the glory of your heart, for
That is greater than the shrieking elements
Beyond our door.
Bind the door and seal the transoms, for the
Spirit and the face of our snow-laden fields
Makes my soul cry.
Feed the lamp with oil and let it not dim, and
Place it by you, so I can read with tears what
Your life with me has written upon your face.
Bring Autumn’s wine. Let us drink and sing the
Song of remembrance to Spring’s carefree sowing,
And Summer’s watchful tending, and Autumn’s
Reward in harvest.
Come close to me, oh beloved of my soul, the
Fire is cooling and fleeing under the ashes.
Embrace me, for I fear loneliness; the lamp is
Dim, and the wine which we pressed is closing
Our eyes. Let us look upon each other before
They are shut.
Find me with your arms and embrace me; let
Slumber then embrace our souls as one.
Kiss me, my beloved, for Winter has stolen
All but our moving lips.
You are close to me, My Forever.
How deep and wide will be the ocean of slumber;
And how recent was the dawn!

Close My Eyes And Count To Ten
(clive westlake)
It isn't the way that you look
And it isn't the way that you talk
It isn't the things that you say or do
Make me want you so
It is nothing to do with the wine
Or the music that's flooding my mind
But never before have i been so sure
You're the someone i dreamed i would find
It's the way you make me feel
The moment i am close to you
It's a feeling so unreal
Somehow i can't believe it's true
The pounding i feel in my heart
The hoping that we'll never part
I can't believe this is really happening to me
I close my eyes and count to ten
And when i open them you're still here
I close my eyes and count again
I can't believe it but you're still here
We were strangers a moment ago
With a few dreams but nothing to show
The world was a place
With a frown on its face
And tomorrow was just, i don't know
But the way you make me feel
The moment i am close to you
Makes today seem so unreal
Somehow i can't believe it's true
Tomorrow will you still be here?
Tomorrow will come but i fear
That what is happening to me
Is only a dream
I close my eyes and count to ten
And when i open them you're still here
I close my eyes and count again
I can't believe it but you're still here
I close my eyes and count to ten
And when i open them you're still here

Don't Close Your Heart
I know how it feels to be on your own
In this cruel world where hearts are bound to turn to stone
Where you are alone
And tired of breathing
It's all going wrong
And you just can't stand the pain any more
You're too numb to believe in
In anything
Baby just don't close your heart
Baby just don't close your heart
Baby just don't close your heart
Darling don't let me down
I know how easy it is to let go
Surrender to despair lurking at your door
To lose your soul and all your feelings
Strength all gone
And so many things left unsaid
And deeds undone
You've stopped caring
'cause it's all in vain
Baby just don't close your heart
Baby just don't close your heart
Baby just don't close your heart
Darling don't let me down
You're so alone
And tired of breathing
It's all going wrong
And you just can't stand the pain
Baby just don't close your heart
Baby just don't close your heart
Baby just don't close your heart
Darling don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Just don't let me down

Deep In Your Eyes
Deep in your eyes I saw another universe
a place of love, peace and rest
and I was aware of the depth of our love,
did know that I do not really deserve you.
I wanted to close my eyes against your gaze,
against the bright golden light that shines from your eyes
when you did bring healing for a life of pain
while you did stretch out great bliss in only a moment
and unsteady on my feet
I escaped from your hot arms,
did open my eyes wide
and our being together was wonderful and intense.

Let Me Kiss You
Theres a place in the sun, For anyone who has the will to chase one
And I think I've found mine, Yes, I do believe I have found mine, so
Close your eyes, And think of someone, You physically admire
And let me kiss you, Let me kiss you
I've zig-zagged all over America, And I cannot find a safety haven
Say, would you let me cry, On your shoulder
I've heard that youll will try anything twice
Close your eyes, And think of someone, You physically admire,
And let me kiss you, Let me kiss you
But then you open your eyes, And you see someone, That you physically despise
But my heart is open
My heart is open to you

Sensation
I close my eyes,
You're there,
Open my hands,
Despair,
I move my lips,
A kiss,
I dream, a dream,
Of Bliss,
I feel your presence,
In my blood,
Love rushing thru me,
Like a flood,
My heart no longer,
In it's place,
I feel your touche,
You're warm embrace,
Who are you?
Tell me, I must know,
'I'm just the Wind,
Please let me go'.

ONE PERSON (Love Poem)
So close, that we are drowning,
So close, that we are still in madness,
So close, that we are invisible in our love,
So close, that we are one 10000 miles apart,
So close, that we do not have to talk to know,
So close, that our hearts beat like one heart,
So close, that we dream the same dreams,
So close, that we breathe the same air,
So close, that we are one person.

Close Your Eyes
I am walking the streets at night,
bathing myself in the moonlight,
watching others go about their business,
so many people living in the darkness,
but this is not a dark and colourless land,
for you must try and understand,
that here your thoughts are divine,
as every moment is frozen in time.
Close your eyes, forget your name,
for in darkness we’re all the same.
Close your eyes, then lose yourself,
for you’re the same as anyone else.
Close your eyes, release your past,
for the future is the one and only task.
Close your eyes, follow your soul,
as it will make you complete and whole.
I am lying awake in my bed,
thinking about what people have said,
words spoken in times of madness,
and held in anger and bitterness,
looking out of my bedroom window,
in to the darkness and the shadow,
seeing the mysterious world outside,
where normal people do not hide.
Close your eyes, untangle your heart,
so your emotions can just fall apart.
Close your eyes, lay yourself bare,
find the beauty to make everyone stare.
Close your eyes, fight your fear,
for everyone is safe in here.
Close your eyes, dream your reality,
then you’ll know what you could be.

Heart Of Hearts (Acoustic)
Close your eyes and try to get to sleep now
Don't you make a peep now
We hear everything
Shut the door and make it clean and neat now
You've been so discreet now
We've seen everything
Inside your heart of hearts you know
Pick yourself up off the floor and stand now
Wash away your sin now
You've got everything
Inside your heart of hearts you know
Will you choose to hid it in your soul?
If it's wrong
And I'm feeling so indifferent
I might be in danger of myself
Shut your mouth and get yourself to sleep now
Don't let then hear you weep now
You've got everything
Inside your heart of hearts you know
Will you choose to hide it in your soul?

Beauty Is The Beast
beauty is the beast
upon our souls and hearts it feasts
it makes us blind to itself
behind innocent smiles it hides in stealth
yet in every place where beauty lies
the angels breath out their gentle sighs
its iron strength conquers our hearts by storm
transforming our very souls into their darkest form
to beauty does our money go, to beauty does our hearts
oh beauty it does cast its spell and triumphs over smarts
for beauty's thirst is unquenchable with habits most costly to sustain
it is beauty that calls to us and causes all our pain
and those who do escape beauty’s graceful wrath
yearn for its cursed gifts with envy doubled rather than halved
for beauty is the ugliest and foulest creature of them all
and in the end it is beauty that everything must fall
for beauty is the beast that we fight within
hence if beauty is the beast one can never win...
Dont Close Your Heart
I know how it feels to be on your own
In this cruel world where hearts are bound to turn to stone
Where you are alone
And tired of breathing
Its all going wrong
And you just cant stand the pain any more
Youre too numb to believe in
In anything
Baby just dont close your heart
Baby just dont close your heart
Baby just dont close your heart
Darling dont let me down
I know how easy it is to let go
Surrender to despair lurking at your door
To lose your soul and all your feelings
Strenght all gone
And so many things left unsaid
And deeds undone
Youve stopped caring
cause its all in vain
Baby just dont close your heart
Baby just dont close your heart
Baby just dont close your heart
Darling dont let me down
You are so alone
And tired of breathing
Its all going wrong
And you just cant stand the pain
Baby just dont close your heart
Baby just dont close your heart
Baby just dont close your heart
Darling dont let me down
Dont let me down
Dont let me down
Just dont let me down
