“How good for you, to travel alone, it’s so empowering!” “A modern woman shouldn’t wait for anyone; run your own show, do your own thing!” “I’m so impressed that you went all on your own!” I know there is no […]

Du holdt om min arm – solen skinnede – vi snakkede – vi grinede – det var varmt selvom det var tidligt på året – du rystede på hovedet så solens reflekser dryssede ud af håret – Du overskinnede solen […]

Kærligheden strømmer fra mig som en flod. Skyller alt det gode med sig ud. Efterlader kun det bundfald her hos mig som jeg nu skal leve med alene uden dig.

I wanted to show you a different world, a world full of beauty and longing, so dreamlike that you’d never know it was real till you fell asleep in the morning But how can I show you when all that […]

Dancing careless through the streets in your flower dress with music in your voice and summer in your eyes. Unnoticed by your light I stand here in the shade while you outshine the sun. You laugh and flirt and talk […]

I’ve seen you today – well, what’s for me to say? That there’s no part of you not in my heart? I’ve left you anyway – well, what’s for me to say? The past is dead; I’m seeking a new […]

A smell as if by flowers wafts towards me. Golden waves glide on a non-existing wind. A landscape in completion is before me. And yet it constantly seems to unwind. You smile and yet it does not reach your eye. […]

shock to feel – after all these years those arms around me; that dream, that phantom, that despair – I had no words and couldn’t shed a tear, I saw you and I saw you not; I wanted to say, […]

And whereto aim the rays of love when the original aim is lost; I love, and with the love I hoped but hope is weak where there’s no trust. Should I agree to let you go? Should I believe you […]

I saw her in a vision – an image of perfection – I know her to be real yet unreal there. So many things could happen but not one did – and I am left here now, alone – the […]

You see what’s in me hidden, you know what I will say. You know I’m with you smitten, and yet you stay away. I do not need your arguments and reason has no power; if you don’t share my sentiments […]
