Iets onnodig

Ek weet nie mee hoe om, om jou te wees nie.
Ek hou jou te veel in ag.

Jy maak my brein anders dink,
My gevoelings in ander dimensies sink.

Stadig, maar seker besef ek...
Jy is ook net mens

Jy maak my gelukkig,  so hoekom moet ons aanhou dit analiseer?

Dear friend

Whatever is bothering you,
Is eating you from the inside.

At the moment you look as if you are filled with negativity.

Your soul looks like it is broken,
There is something you are keeping from us.

If we cannot give you what you want,
go on and
Move  along.   

But if you want to stay, you should talk.
Talk like there is no tomorrow
Don't be afraid
We are here to stay.

Temptation

Under a starless night,
On a high level of ecstasy.

I drank half the bottel,
Just to realise, again, how I felt.

Tempting it is,
To reach out and hold your face,
Smile at your eyes,
Lock myself
In your embrace.

Constant day dreams, whispers of you,
Soothing cold to freeze my pains
These tears are words my heart
cannot explain.      

So many of my smiles begin with you.
You corrupted my mind and inflamed my soul. 

Yet I'm still waiting for a face that will never show.

Thank you

The fact that
You
Did not want me,
was
The beginning of me
wanting myself.

Thank you.

Unravel

You are like a map,
Waiting to be unraveled. 

You tell me I'm yours,
You won't even remember.

It's evil, do you even regret it?

An emotion that cannot be explained,
It is a beauty from afar.

This is something that I cannot deny.  

I need you,
I want you,
But the question is
...do I really?

Now, I cannot feel you anymore.
It is unnatural to me.

So...
Do you even still exist?

Dis net 'n aand.

Ek sit nou hier en kyk na die sterretjies.
Met die mooiste maan, so ver weg.
Pik donker naglig met n wit kring wat die donker veld verlig. 

'n Nag só stil met die geluid van krieke in die verte.  
Die bome sing terwyl die wind waai deur die ou verlepte blare. 
              
Die  nagapie spring van die een tak na die ander.
Wolkies bou stadig op in die verte en die wind waai erger.

Terwyl ek hier lê op die gras besef ek net weer...Die lewe is mooi.

Nothing is beautiful anymore

The roses wilted
and butterflies died
in my stomach.

It seems that nothing
is beautiful anymore.

Not even you.

'n Gedagte

Daar is ‘n verlange na iets.
Sonder enige gevoelings aangeheg.

Dit is my gedagtes wat volg saam die ritme van die musiek.
Ek hoor stemme wat praat, maar ek luister nie.

Ek dink.

Daar staan ‘n bottlewyn, rooi.
Daar word gepraat van dinge wat ons spot,

Tog dink ek nogsteeds.
