Motherland
═════════.▪️. Oh how I miss the happy people how I miss the rainy streets Yes I miss being greeted like an old friend by random people at the railway station I miss the old lady outside the shop, opening her hands for some coins Everyone treated me equally It was like we were all one huge family. Rich French words swirling around carried by the wind The ladies in the bakeries smiling while baking warm, fresh bread The chocolateries gifting sweets to the children, making them even more joyous than before... Oh how I miss the long bike rides through the cobblestone alleys Going from shop to shop searching for that perfect gift for the people we love Running in the darkness, our steps echoing through the road Screaming from happines, laughing at everything we see I trip over my own feets, I scratch my knees But I stand up, I keep going I don't feel the pain I'm too happy, too free Say mom why do you think I cried myself to sleep all those times It's because I miss all the things we used to experience together Yes I miss my own country, my language I miss sparks of myself, I miss me Because every single time we leave this fascinating place, when we leave Belgium I see: This is my home, where I belong and need to be ═════════.▪️.

Тени собственного сердца ...
Глубокой ночью в тишине , Как млечные пути горели свечи Их огонек горел во тьме Скрывая тайны сердца человечьи Тенями прошлого унося яркий свет, На языке горело пламя вспоминания Из памяти оствавив только след Потухших пепла чувств одного созерцания .. И лишь полны отчаяния глаза Остались морем слёзного раскаяния .. Об том ,что не забудешь некогда Ошибки сделанных ,когда то лишь случайностью ... Прекрасных звёзд на небе уголков, Когда хотелось быть ранимым Сломать себя от бури горечи долгов, Которых прятал от своих любимых И каждый вздох ,что вдруг не смог, Раскрыть все страхи угнетения В тени ночей под всхлип с дождём Укрыв опять себя жалким замком мгновения. 🎶🎧🎶 💫Demons ~Alec Benjamin 🖤

I Saw a Dream
I saw a dream, and there were you, And there was coldness in your eyes. I wonder what a kind of true Made you become as cold as ice. And later I looked back to get a sense This empty glance was hellish call of past. It used to be a high and strong defense Against the world, the pain and me at last. You looked at me, and peering in your soul, I felt so lonely, as something vital died. And that is what I fear most of all - That nothing gentle will remain inside. Inside of you. Inside of me as well. And nothing will be said to farewell.
