for an angel - angel tears

angel tears (by deav)
Rio, Set 2005
(?)

it’s ok
i understand
things don’t go the way we dream
every time

some may say
(i comprehend)
not exactly what they mean
so do i

now someone tell me
how to keep these tears from falling
i try to dry them
but they just keep rolling down, down

it’s all right
i'll take a stand
things are better than they seem
for a while

darkest night
comes to an end
shades around are vanishing
so are mine

but someone tell me
how to keep these tears from falling
i try to swallow them
but every time i drown, i drown

an angel told me
that tears stop under the water
do they?
i wonder…
if it’s so
what a choice…
die or cry…
it doesn’t rhyme…
or does it?
(fuck)

for an angel - hey man

hey man (by deav)
Rio, Aug 2005

hey, man
wash your tears away
hey, man
pick up the pieces of your heart

in this lonely place
you don’t have to stay
every end is the dawn of a brand new start

it’s for real
you’re at the dawn of a new you
believe me, man
i can only speak the truth
for you…

Zakinthos

the picture below shows one of the places where i dived. swimming in emerald or sapphire? hard to tell...

(?) - free at last

free at last (by deav)
Lefkada - Gr, June 2005
(?)

long road
known, yet unknown
yet to be walked
yet walked before

wind on
the heights pound on my ear drums
up and down
sometimes we slide
sometimes we run

at every step of the ancient paths
i shed skin
i shed skin
at every bend of the winding road
i shed flesh
i shed bone
until my soul is free at last
until my soul is free

my eyes
flooded with the blue sea
for a little while
they look like yours

i bathe in opal
like flying
i remember you
stranded at distant shores

at every suck of the burning smoke
i shed ash
i shed ash
at every beat of a heart of stone
i shed fears
i shed tears
until my soul is free at last
until my soul is free
