Breathing Through Broken Glass
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Sitting by the curb with a bottle of vodka
In his hands,
He is wasting away his life
With the uncertainties and miseries of tomorrow.
He has no hope yet he is alive and strong.
Smiling. Laughing. Painfully.
He has no dreams, but a future still stands in his way.
Starting over is his weakness, letting go is his tragedy.
Oh how the cold wind blows and washes over him,
Ashes to Ashes,
The dust to air.
Broken. Destroyed.
Yet his soul still lingers in the midnight glare,
Where is the rain to cover his dry tears?
Green light. Green light.
Red light. Too late.
Let's walk up the icy road once more,
To drain away the man who once held a bottle of vodka,
His heart sober,
But his blood flowing from his veins.

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Hello Earth.
Where r u?
Show ur beautiful face,
Reach out to me and touch my hand.
I am here
Waiting for a reason.
Explanation of the not-so-obvious:
My EXISTENCE.
18 years of living.
18 years of being.
I'm still here.
Confused at reality,
Dreaming for answers,
Waiting for something to believe in,
For something stranger than the supernatural.
Love me,
Hear me,
Hold me,
Praise me,
Touch me
So that I know you're here,
Because if you're here then
So am I.

The Earth as Conflict Diamond
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

The Truth is…
Everyday the world is changing,
The Climate is overheating,
The war is never-ending,
And Children's minds are forever in pain and doubt.
What a world we are living in!
There's no more peace for humankind,
Nor love for nature,
Honestly the world we are living in is a cruel disaster,
We are mostly devastating ourselves—our freedom—while we pay revenge to our enemies.
We use many strategies and tools to move around secretly,
But in the end we are all villains to our own foolish pride.
Scientists and researchers come up with tons of ideas
On how to make the world a better place to live in, to breath in, to be a proud human in.
However
Not one of them is victorious enough to face the truth
That the world will soon be ending if we choose to be the way we are—senseless individuals who have no value for time and understanding.
We need to educate ourselves about the misery we are causing to everyone around us
When we destruct Nature's beautiful wonders.
It's a crime for humanity to set off bombs in the place we all call home.
It's a crime for children to stain their innocent minds with the blood and pain of a crying river,
They are trained to kill with those heavy machine guns,
And those tough firm faces which aren’t truly all that strong.
They leave their family, friends and innocence behind.
Demolish those nuclear weapons please!
Feel angry to shout and scream for what you believe in and not what “they” believe in.
But
Stay away from the corrosive chemicals and the vicious street fights,
Instead fight for your everlasting dreams and freedom.
Stay away from the psychoactive drugs that damage our brain cells.
Instead understand the human body
And why our bones and muscles and brain and heart need the proper nourishment.
Trust yourself—your values—endlessly like a never-ending circle of friendship,
There are always cracks and breaks each step of the way
But
Be smart and take the lead
Let the truth bother you,
Go ahead. Fight it.
