Mornings like these, when you wake up rested and wonder what time it is, then lie awake in bed and find the pain is gone.

Pain
Pure pain at the sight of
Someone you care for
Dissolving before your very eyes.

And hugs just make us realize
The distance
Between two bodies
That no longer feel connected.
Next time I´d rather die
Than fall out of love.

Trembling
My flesh is trembling with desire,
I reach out for you
And smile a crooked smile.
My alter ego
Bursts into laughter
She takes her full red lips to my ear
And says “get yourself together,
Pleasure is pain and you know it.”
And then she laughs again
“This will only leave you naked,
As soon as he´s torn down your guard
He´ll step on your soul
With dirty rubber boots.”
I answer her defiantly
“No pain, no gain!
I´ll give it all, once again
Like I always do,
I never tire,
It´s how you play this game.
Let him have my heart
Rip it all out
If that´s what it takes
I´ll try my hand at it.”
