All the colours will bleed into one, dikt

It was something in her that she had always carried, a longing, a deep nameless desire that always followed her. And a some times through her life it would have a name, it would smother itself like an ocean towards a cliff, licking its salty shores. But could somebody ever meet this deep, dark desire? Could it ever be fulfilled?
She didn´t know where it came from, maybe from hidden layers in her past she didn´t know about, feelings created in a warm, secret dream from childhood. Hiding in dark misty forests, trying to capture fairies and trolls. She had never left those forests, and likely she never would. Her creatures, colors and sparkling inner waters would always stay with her. She would dream, dream, dream and then dream some more. Pushed and edged on by this endless longing she couldn´t name.




I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For

I have climbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you.
I have run, I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you.
But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for.
But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for.
I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her finger tips
It burned like fire
(I was) burning inside her.
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone.
But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for.
But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for.
I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one.
But yes, I’m still running.
You broke the bonds
And you loosed the chains
Carried the cross of my shame
Oh my shame, you know I believe it.
But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for.
But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for.
