promises (Remove filter)
When a promise is made
When a promise is made but those words vanish in the embers, your cries echo from the deceit.

Time to play.
You find an unusual relic.
A golden puzzle box of unknown origin.
You hold it in both hands.
Turn a corner, turn another and another.
You feel the slice of a blade
In the palm of your hand. Drop the box--
Which lifts, changes shape. The puzzle solves itself.
Plays a short tune. The wall sp...

Someday
"Someday you have to show me
Your beautiful place"
There is no "someday" anymore,
Honey.
I wish I could tell you
That this is just a crisis,
A temporary closing.
I wish I could reassure you
About our freedom,
The written words
Would, still be valid,
Named by the city you love in.
Now they all forget
How precious they are,
Behave more like in the pre war,
Greeting Weimar,
100 years ...

Small Promises
Out there beyond the hill

seeing you there drifting away
into finality
It has been so many years
since I made you a promise
I could not keep
You said

No Take Backs.
Who am I to you?
Do you want me to stick around?
I'm screaming at the top of my lungs
But you still don't hear a sound.
Hang me from your promises
As I choke on your words.
You said you want me forever
But you cut my heart in thirds.
Where the fuck were you
When I needed you the most?
My world was crashing down
You turned into a ghost.
You left me all alone
And I've been lost he...
