Toxicity of feelings
Is real hard to describe.
I've got you under my skin,
My blood has your name inscribed.

I'm lost and forgotten
Without you.
I'm ****** and bewildered
With you.

There isn't a thing
To be done about it -
Our life is original sin.

I wish I could take all the ***** in the world
Along with me on my travels.
For, it will allow me to carry on dreamin'
While staring at all of them marvels.

The ginger of whisky, the ruby of *** -
The colours I love and admire.
When bitterness bites me and I'm 'bout to drown
Them spirits raise me from the mire.

Yes, I will be sick and feel dizzy at times,
My thought will be goin' in circles.
But this is a lever, a wager, a price
I'll pay to escape this man-circus.

Be
Be strong. Be brave. Be you. Be me.
Be everything this life can be.
Don't be a-nothing! Be someone!
Be battles lost. Be battles won.

Be Green. Be Black. Be Red. Be White.
Be winter, summer, day and night.
Be here. Be now. Be best. Be last.
Be dreams. Be youth that long has passed.

Be fish. Be ocean. Be the sky.
Be Mother, Child and that guy.
Be lovely, charming, grace itself.
Be loved, be humble, praise yourself.

Take heart. Let live. Let go. Let die.
Take care. Let slip. Let know. Let fly.
Be fall. Be high. Be you. Be me...
But more importantly - just be.

Getting the words right is never easy. Not in the slightest. And don't think that this only pertains to lay people - politicians, artists, journos, writers, you name it, find it hard most of the time. Even if it seems they're getting theirs right, talking the talk, spinning a story, telling tales, saying things - well, they're just bullshitting. You and themselves. For not a single person in the world at any given moment knows exactly what they are about to say, what should be said - or rather, left out, which is more important. Once you've opened your mouth and let the words slip, they're gone, living a life of their own. Out there to haunt you.

Un livre à lire.
Des gens rencontrés.
Une femme à aimer.
La vie plus belle qu'la notre…

Une mort à tromper.
Un chemin à courir.
Un amour à livrer…
Tous les sens à traduire.

Toutes les lettres à brouiller.
Tous les anges à connaître.
Toutes les âmes à sauver.
Et après – disparaître…

The emerald island
is waiting for me.
Its waters are mine for life.
And at the end of time you’ll see:
The island will still survive!

My heart is captured with it,
My spirit there resides.
My feeling and thoughts are vain -
I want them to drown in its tides.

***
I’ve been to straths,
I’ve been to lochs,
I’ve been to mountains -
I’ve seen but every single beauty of the world!
But everywhere I went
Blood flew in fountains.
I saw that
And my blood went cold.
