Choosing You Again

Heaving many sighs Rave about a text to sync Inventing worlds of touch Stories make us go Tell one another all Inverting even jazz

Serenity

(I've been asked to write some lyrics for a very promising progressive rock/metal band and this is the outcome for the first song. I realize that the approach to writing lyrics is very different writing "normal" poetry in terms of structure, rhythm, topics etc. Hope you enjoy it - maybe the entire song will be recorded some day. - R.)

My ever dying demons / hovering behind

The trees to lure me back / into the mists of my mind

Taunting disbelief / lurking in their eyes

No belated miracles / no victorious cries

I ride across the heavens and gallop through the gates

I silence all the voices that whisper it’s too late

I sing along with thunder and bolt into the sea

At the bottom, there’s no air that keeps on drowning me

Humming songs of triumph / in my soul tonight

A myriad of sparks / outshines the lunar light

On nocturnal pastures / I feel the healing sleet

Wash away the cracks / in the mire on my feet

In the cloudless sky / no more birds of prey

Zephyrs gliding on my skin / carry all the thorns away

Still a sense of triumph / resonates in me

As I stand here breathing / in serenity

Effervescent soul

In serenity
