                Big world, so big

WORLD such a complex word
Consisting of comparisons,
Methapores and so on,
Whatever you can think of,
Whatever you can name it.

If you have your own world,
Which is so much better than this big world,
Better than yours, better than mine,
It is a smaller one, but a peaceful one,
Which you would like it,
Which I can think of,
Which I can dream of.

World, I live you!
World, I hate you!
You are my world.
You, world, you, you.

I want it, you want to rule the world.
But hey, stop living in your own mind.
Start living in the real world
Real, big, tempting, cruel world.

World that I adore,
World that I dream of.
My entire world,
So big, so cruel, so, so.



What if…

What if my mind says something?
What if my heart says another thing?
What if my body wants aomwrhing else?
What if, what if?

What do I have to do, what do I have to choose?
Can you tell me? Somebody can tell me?
Do you really care? Can you help me?
Thank you! Merci! Koszonom! Gratzie!



To my dear

What day it is?
Please tell me, my dear!
Don’t keep me waiting.
I wanna hear.

I wanna see you,
I wanna feel you,
I wanna speak to you,
And that is all for now,
I think, my dear.

Don’t you believe me?
Maybe I sound way too serious,
But that’s how you put the problem
My dearest of all my dear.

I’m still waiting for your reply.
Maybe you want to change your mind
And go away and leave me here,
All by myself. Don’t you dare!
