I would like to be the wave of your happiness
And I’ll cover your body with mine...
I’ll take your soul in my world for a second
By drowning your tears in my glass with red wine...
...

I’m the foam of the wave
Which floods the edge of a shackled soul
Protecting dreams by storms which rave
By letting them to never fall
...

I found myself in the middle of a perfect sphere
Drawing a shadow with a troubled look and grizzled hair.
It started to climb towards the top of a golden pyramid
There’s the place where my dreams are hanging by a frail thread.
...

I’ve met the love someday before
After a long and awful grace...
I’ve said to it: hey, hurry you,
We have to talk now, face to face!
...

I was the half of a silent autumn
When it rained with flowers...
Becoming the echo of the fatigued shadow
Killed by seconds and hours...
...

You’ve left this life at only 17 years... God will offer you peace and a place in heaven,
my dear sister...
...

I don’t know where I’ve found your touch
I don’t know when I’ve understood you miss me much
But I’ve gave all my life which was unfair
And if I’ll lose tomorrow, I don’t care …
...

Can you tell me mother, why the time’s passing?
Where are all the stories from my childhood?
There’s no answer ... just the leaves are rustling
When I get lost on a road between bad and good
...

Give me your eyes because I want to cry
And if you really love me, forgive my tears...
My gleaming look will be the sun of your sky
Even that I’ve lost my smile in all these years...
...

I step on the thread of life
as a lonely dancer
Asking the fate why
but it has no answer...
...

How to forget you, the light of my eyes?
You were my sun which never set but ever rise...
How to forget your promise, tell me how?
You were the one you’ve broken our vow
...

Your words... only a poison with the taste of honey.
My soul... the thing you’ll never buy with diamonds, gold or money.
Your selfishness has killed so fast my naive love for you
By shaking suddenly my heart and cutting it in two...
...

I wish to have an icy heart for never love again,
Two eyes which never know to cry and never feel the pain...
My mind to not remember when and for what I was born,
A closed soul which never felt what’s means a real storm.
...
