What I dislike:
the feeling of business
walking through parked cars
frozen fingers
unclipped toenails
and words unsaid
broken glasses
cold goodbyes
unkempt yards
and a world who wants more
but gives less
lights in my face
the expectations of others
eyes that follow the face
but wont look within
disagreement
not knowing what to say
and dwelling on the past
when this day
is waiting to begin
what I like:
Something in the oven
fruit on a tree
opening the front door
falling leaves
toes beside the fireplace
wrapping presents
writing a note
life without a mirror
stones in cold water
the sound of the wind outside
holding a child's hand
tracing the stars with my fingers
hot tea before bed
forgetting everything in a book
the feeling of petals on skin
raindrops on my face
sitting with a loved one in silence
and sporadic hugs

starlight
if i walk with you
in the starlight
will you
hold my hand
if i walk with you
in the moonlight
will you
look into my eyes
if i walk with you
in the darkness
will you
light the way
if i walk with you
in the cold
will you
be my warmth
how i long for the starlight
the moonlight the darkness and the cold
how i long for the bleakness of tommorow
that you might make it bright
in the starlight
will you
hold my hand
if i walk with you
in the moonlight
will you
look into my eyes
if i walk with you
in the darkness
will you
light the way
if i walk with you
in the cold
will you
be my warmth
how i long for the starlight
the moonlight the darkness and the cold
how i long for the bleakness of tommorow
that you might make it bright

another year older
it doesn't quite feel like I'm a year older
twenty two
it sounds so grown up
and i still feel like the little girl
who ran after boys on the playground
dug in the dirt
and emptied detergent into her mother's high heeled shoes
well, acording to the calender, I'm another year older
i think i've decided this year that its best
to just stop counting

i think i've decided this year that its best
to just stop counting
nothing less
Once in a while
the world stops
the wind stops
the trees stop
swaying
the people stop
saying
and time stands still
if only for a moment
life is put on hold
Once in a while
you recognize the day you are in
and grasp it
for what it is
nothing more
nothing less
the world stops
the wind stops
the trees stop
swaying
the people stop
saying
and time stands still
if only for a moment
life is put on hold
Once in a while
you recognize the day you are in
and grasp it
for what it is
nothing more

branches swaying
morning dew
says how are you
ready to face this day?
what have i left
to say
if i do the dew
and say im fine
will i suffuciently conclude
this rhyme
if i dont do the dew
and say im not
the world may wonder
what i've forgot
loved ones praying
branches swaying
my peace comes from Him
and I'll answer
Jeg er bra, tak
