Under the stars, naked

Thank you for reading my madness.

I never expected
so many of you to read,
it is just madness
after all,
but that’s okay,

we are all a little mad and a bit crazy.

And I’ve always liked the mad ones

– for we are the ones who talk in riddles and smile when we do,
for we know the world makes more sense to us that way –

so, if you’re reading this somewhere in the world,
smiling,
I do hope that one day we meet.

And when we do,
let’s decide that no matter
where we are in the world,

we will find a place to light a fire,
on a beach,
or somewhere in the woods
where you can still see the stars

– and we will get cheap drinks,
the cheaper the better,
and we will play old tunes,
and laugh about the world –

and as the sun comes up
we will run,
naked,

as the stars call us back,
their children,
their mad children coming home.

let’s agree to that
and I hope
to see you soon.

Madness

Your eyes, I can’t get them out of my mind,

Those crazy beautiful shine in them,

It’s just a kind of madness,

That’s taking me under its control…

Your hair, I can’t forget any of it,

All over your face helping it,

To look more perfect than ever,

You were on a roll…

And I tried to find out what’s wrong with me,

Something kept missing inside,

Maybe it’s just a pain that hides,

Creeping over my soul…

But now I have finally seen your eyes,

I have finally heard your lies,

Is it all real life,

Or is it just a show?

When I look back,

I remember a space we had,

But now it’s just some thing you have,

That I can’t call it my own…

But now I have finally seen your eyes,

I have finally heard your lies,

Is it all real life,

Or is it just a show?

And now I have finally seen the lights,

And now I have finally realized,

I need your life,

I need your love…

Trust me, come to me and rescue me,

Take me away, to some place, where it’s just you and me,

Catch my dream, and make it yours like it’s yours not me,

Push me in, and let me sink in it slowly…
