Tromp-L’œil


“It is not meant to be“, says the mind
while the heart still isn‘t sure about
possible consequences of blindly following
feelings without asking the eyes for permission

Your eyes speak volumes, but your mind has
decided that your heart should love
her, you think your feelings have tricked you
they made you feel love for someone like me

There is no space for me in a life like yours
With picture perfect attributes and no room
for broken hearts, deviations from the grand plan
or a heart that rules over your own conscience

A twist of fate wont change your schedule
in which you are occupied, but i‘ve got time
on my hands, but my mind will be busy
thinking about what could have been

But never will be, and so our eyes meet every
once in a while, trying to avoid that they know
just as well as my mind and your mind that
all of this is just an act of self-delusion

Losing Game

Weigh down my heart, sweet soul, Like a gigantic stone on my chest, I am broken, I am no longer whole, You laid my tormented heart to rest. The days pass by and I miss you still, Mom said ”he’ll never come back”, And I cried out ”Oh, but he will”, It’s the companionship that I lack. I’m still so confused, because I never got to know, if you had any feelings for me, or did you just put up a show? Do you even miss me? I try to tell myself that you dont remember, or that someone else makes you happy, But way back then in November, We were closer than ever, even a bit sappy. Listening to Duncan Laurences ”Arcade” on repeat, I, too, got addicted to a losing game, And I still hope that we would meet, But I guess you have put out our flame. You ran away from me, one time too many, And I finally stopped chasing, No more chances, if there ever were any, that final end game was emaciating. I know it hurts, I know it’s torture, But I d...
