Wrong fit

Once upon a time 
there was a boy who couldn't move
Jimmy dreamed of running fast
and jumping high as kangaroo.
His friends loved to visit places
they would walk a thousand miles
and the boy followed them
with a nervous painful smile.
His feet would not listen
but man he got to move
and as his friends were walking fast
they yelled: faster, Jimmy Chooo!
Jimmy had broken feet
there was never time to heal
but he went on walking slow
trying not to look so weak.
And he got to see the places
with or without friends
at the end of life he realized
wrong shoe size was what he had.

Cher Ami

Ma lettre serait être courte :
Cher ami,
laisse ta douleur.
 
Je connais ton poison
nous portons le même sang
je refuse ton malheur,
rien de vrai qui en provient.
 
J’abandonne ton poison
je l’échange pour grandes batailles
si seulement tu goûterais
de l’eau propre, la force du bien
 
J’ai goûté ton poison
j'entends toujours mon propre sang
demain je te pardonnerai,
peut-être demain tu vas comprendre.
 
Ma lettre devait être plus courte,
je déteste son air  fatale.
On t’aimera toujours
''cher ami'',

malgré malheur.

Unaffected

We salute rebels and thinkers of late night
unaffected by our lenses, unselected and denied

readers and riders of most precious silent storms

those who unfollow the late promiscuous glow

Risers, dreamers, chiefs from old tribes

precious believers unaffected by vain smile

Givers, feelers, moon chasers from above

mind lover, seekers, lovers of the love

loyal nonconformists, lions of the light

beautiful soloists, unaffected by the time.

We salute you all

all those humble souls

unaffected by this song

unaffected by the pride.

The smartest man on Earth

I remember how I believed 
you were the smartest man on Earth

to me, that's what you were

at least for some time.

Like when you talked about the world

as if you knew all it's secrets

I loved the sound of your voice 

to me, it was enough.

You said panda's would soon extinct

you said they were too lazy to live

I disagreed with rage in my heart

and darling, Panda's are still alive.

Pick a card

Pick a card and touch my hand

you'll lose before the dawn

I've beaten you in your own game

you've picked a Queen of wands

I've beaten you in your own game

Joker, two Queens and wands

it was late, you went away

we've sent one Joker home.

Barely a sound

There are few words you can rely on

you know which words those are.

There is a definite number of words to cry for

those are not yours or mine.

My words change meaning

from today till tomorrow

my words have no shape

or any form to rely on.

There are only certain words

you should understand as true

every other word

is barely a sound

it bears no fruit.

Juste une idée

Je suis un voyageur vrai
qui n'a rien vu du monde.
Ma maison se trouve partout 
ma maison n'existe plus.
 
Je ne suis pas une idéaliste                                
car je déteste toutes vos idées
idées bruyantes, idées vides
il n'y a qu’une qui me plaît.
 
J'attendrai ta main demain
la main qui me souvient d'hier
du moment, et pour toujours
c'est l'idée qui me resserre.

We know what we know

Your pretty eyes
must know the way
I tell myself.
You wander each day 
from mountain to lake
seeking wonders
feeling nothing
but a mild breeze on your hair.
There must be more,
you can't help yourself
so you run and sweat out
all the toxins away.
But you can't sweat out the one,
can you.
You laugh and kiss hard,
I'm proud of you.
Do they even know
why you cannot glow,
I remembered you could.
And I know what it means 
to be damned under the sun
no matter how hard you try
or what good you do.
Those men are always 
waiting for you
deep underground
to shut your truth.
Sweet stranger's eyes,
I was never with them.

Sea people

She can't swim in dirt
nor she can drink from the sea
stop waiting for the fish
to bring her to your knees.

And if she drowns like a rock
it wont happen while she sings
and God she sings so sweet
she never learnt to speak.

Lucky star

The clock is ticking
tick tick tock
baby screams

as the sun goes down
the house is empty 
it's already tomorrow

dinner is cold

I don't see any stars.
