A place where you can breath

From the steep hills
covered in the greenest grass
onto steep hills
covered in the whitest snow
and the dark blue sky

Our feet rested on ice
we gazed out, farther away
than the mountains root
and before our feet slipped
we understood how small we are

To breath the mountains air
was something new and exciting
just wanted to climb higher
reach a new height until we could
and would reach the top

Shattered glass and a lost heartbeat

Press play and when the music starts begin to read

Sitting at the dinner table
A burger and chips ready
Laughing friends around me
Everything is as it should be
But just can’t stop thinking of you

Your life is not as it ought to be
It have followed you a long distance
Now it’s just right behind you
And I know what you are afraid of
Losing yourself in everything

Like a forgotten heartbeat or
When you take one too many steps in the stairs
It feels strange, you feel different
Or like that you are falling
But you have nothing to worry about

If you fall, know that I’ll be there
I will catch you in my arms
Might cry and not make my happy face
But I am strong and I’ll carry you home
Or to a place that feels safe

There are times when we all feel broken
Like shattered glass spread all over
Overrun by everyone and everything
We all get worn, dirty, used
No, none of us is like new

But tomorrow is a new day
It’s time for all the things that didn’t happen today
Tomorrow always gives us a new chance
To do what feels good and right
No worries my dear friend, everything will be alright
