They packed their bags
And are leaving here for good
It might be their last night here
Then again
It might not

What has it got to do with me?
I always asked myself

They fight
I translate

Fighting a war that doesn't belong to me


Finally
He broke it
He broke the hearts of many
He broke the line
He broke the bonds
Most importantly
He broke it all with just a single word

It marked the beginning of the end


It's all so not right
Just so not right


It's hard to wake up
When the shades have been pull shut
This house is haunted
It's so pathetic
It makes no sense at all

I'm ripe with things to say
The words rot and fall away
If this stupid poem could fix this home
I'd read it everyday


So here's your holiday
Hope you enjoyed this time
You gave it all away
It was mine
When you're dead and gone
Will you remember this night?
Twenty years now lost


Their anger hurts my ears
Been burning strong for seven years
Rather than fix the problems
They never solve them
It makes no sense at all

I see them everyday
We get along so why can't they?
If this is what he wants
And that's what she wants
Then why there's so much pain?
