About the book

Nothing in our lives is really black.

Not even white.

However, we feel it so many times.

But why is it easier for a person to write something when he is sad?

Who knows…

Barefoot

Take my hand and follow me,

through the rainbow to the stars.

Please don't think of loneliness.

Everything's fine when you smile.

It doesn't matter, honey,

that you're barefoot. I am too.

I don't need any money.

The only thing I need is you.

Bad girl

Do you want to buy some cocaine?

Asked me a little girl.

I'm not here to complain,

I'm here just to inform.

Beware of the cute smile

and the lovely kiddy voice.

You don't know what's hiding,

behind the easy choice.

The right word

Look into my eyes,

you will see the love,

reflection of an angel.

Look into my heart,

burning deep inside,

scared, empty and painful.

It's hard to explain,

all the pain behind the smile,

life in my inner world.

It's hard to hold on,

walking the green mile,

so help me find the right word.

Even if

All the things we keep inside,

all the things we're trying to hide,

all the things they cannot see,

are written to our memory.

Even if I fall again,

even if I miss the train,

even if my life goes wrong,

I will sing a happy song.

I'll sing a song about the tree,

where I found you and you found me.

A song about big love for free,

that fills all the air I breathe.

There's nothing more to say, my dear,

even I'm not Richard Gere,

I'll be there for you forever,

hope we will still be together.

Valentine

Black Valentine roses,

dying before I smell their fragrance.

They're falling on my empty table,

today has a love forbidden entrance.

Hands that want to hug some beauty,

ignite another cigarette.

I'd better play Call of duty,

love is just a silhouette.

She will dissolve like smoke,

I can't touch her body.

I'll play on my piano now,

a sweet and sad melody.

Take me back

Here I am.

On my knees again.

I give to you

all my heart.

Here I am.

A broken, sinful man.

So take me back,

to the start.

Take me back,

to the place,

where love is the one,

that surrounds me.

Take me back,

into your arms.

Where could I feel,

that you love me.

Thankful

Sometimes I am shy.

Sometimes I am strong.

My feelings cannot hide.

I don't care if it's wrong.

Honey, I love you more,

than the whole world around us.

Love you more than myself,

more than tears that drown us.

I want to be in your embrace,

to feel your heartbeat on my chest.

To feel the skin of your nice face.

Is it the end, or is it just a test?

I'm sorry for the sadness

but I'm thankful for the time.

For the time God gave us,

to live dreams day and night.

The voice

My whole heart cries out:

Come and fill me with love.

Take my broken dreams,

and make them real life.

I'm on my way to the light,

away from the dark side of me.

But I still didn't find,

the stolen forbidden key.

I feel lonely without hope.

Without a vision of my future.

I feel desperate in full scope.

God tagged me as an unknown user.

There's no turning back for me,

I will continue my journey.

Few steps to my destiny,

someone is calling: Follow me.

I will find them

I don't know where you are now.

You should be here and sitting near me.

I long to see your pretty smile,

hope, wherever you are, you hear me.

I try so hard to find a place,

to stay together, you and me.

Where can I endlessly caress your face,

I will find them if you agree.

Surprise me

Where is the key?

I need to open the door.

I need to find,

the remote control of my soul.

Last time I saw you in my dreams,

singing loud a happy song,

walking through the sunbeams,

and dancing all night long.

And then I woke up,

You were not by me.

Please try it once,

try to surprise me.

Neon heart

I'm watching a silent shadow play,

feeling so far away from you.

Your eyes give me the hope to stay,

to stay in love with you.

My heart shines through the night,

longing for your hand's touch.

Please, come back and hold me tight,

and you'll know, I love you so much.

The piano losing its melody,

the wonderful sounds from above.

Now it's all changing to threnody,

our four seasons of love.

There is a war inside my head,

there is a place, where we live.

Come and touch my neon heart,

the only thing you can believe.

Flood

Why is it all so complicated?

How do I fight without a sword?

Why are our souls still disconnected?

Why can't I find the magic word?

Too many questions in my head.

Look, what your love has done to me!

I know It's my daily bread,

to be the one who's still gloomy.

I'm living in a world of fantasy,

where roses aren't red as blood.

The pain in my heart brings me to ecstasy,

and then it's all gone with a flood.

Stories

Oh, how my heart cries,

I knew it wouldn't work.

I can't stand the pressure anymore.

I can't listen to those lies,

with which I calm myself.

I have to continue to play my role.

We all have stories to tell,

even though my mouth is silent.

Even though I turn my cell phone off.

The flames of pain are hot as hell,

and my desire is so violent,

so savage, it throws my soul off.

Honey...

I don't hear your breath,

next to me in the morning.

All that sounds here,

is a loud alarm warning.

I try to touch your face,

before I open my eyes.

But you're not in the place,

where your body should lie.

Where are you, honey?

I need you by my side.

No, it's not funny.

My fear is like high tide.

Don't let me wake up!

There is no escape.

I'm surrounded by music

and I still dream about you.

You're my pretty angel,

in my mind created.

When I close my eyes, I'm finally with you.

Morning is my enemy,

I can't leave the night.

Please, help me and stop the next day.

Don't let me wake up!

I don't want to go.

Don't let me wake up!

Let me be with you!

Don't let me wake up!

I don't want to go.

Don't let me wake up!

Let me dream forever.

Let me know

Cold winter wind blows.

Everything is frozen.

Everything chills,

within my soul.

Will anything change,

if my heart will open?

Please let me know

Will I not be alone?

Without love

I don't want to move on.

I don't want anything new anymore.

It was all nice, though cruel.

For all those memories.

For all the feelings that persist.

For the world, where I lived.

For all this, it was worth it.

Suffering, hurt, longing ...

I should be happy.

But today I feel empty.

Without sense, life is just dying.

Error 404.

Love not found.

Trying to find something more.

My dreams got drowned.

One heart for sale.

They wrote in the ad.

What if I fail?

I feel something bad.

Night walk

I forgot how to love,

and smiles I can’t recognize.

Slow motion pictures try

to remind me those feelings.

Watching through the window glass,

I cannot see your eyes.

And the music in my mind,

can’t defeat the demons.

Every day I fight,

with the thoughts, which keeps me down.

Sometimes I win and sometimes not.

Walking through the night,

I lose myself in my hometown.

And the flames of the stars are burning hot.

The next chapter

Why can't you stop,

making all the sad things?

I can't fly anymore,

with my broken wings.

You still run faster,

no matter that I fell down.

Like a darkside master,

you leave me on the ground.

You don't look back,

no matter how I feel.

I wish it was a dream

but I know it's real.

You left me alone,

and my life goes wrong.

I turned the page.

Now I must be strong.

Bleeding heart

I feel your pain,

when your heart is broken.

It's in my brain,

the word that cannot be spoken.

I hope, it's not too late,

to change your shades of sorrow.

Will it be our fate?

Will you love me tomorrow?

I'm here

I'm still here,

I just can't leave it.

I'm still watching over you.

I have no fear.

You should believe it.

I'll never let go of you.
