Us is gone

It's not about us, 
Not anymore
It's not about trust
Not about forever or evermore

We've forgotten friendship
And never pursued love
We found our way in hardships
So hard to ignore

It's not about us, 
Not anymore
It's not about trust
Not about  evermore

We fulfilled our duties 
and shared each other's joys
But now the pain is raising 
And there's no joker's ploys

To meet your other half is sharing
a deep sense of longing
Now with the walls crumbling
I feel the distance expanding

We never gave a thought to the song 
When it was made for us
We've never taken a chance on us 
As if we don't belong

It's not about us, 
Not anymore
It's not about trust
Not about friendship anymore

And if I feel like escaping
Whe you're the one leaving
It's not about us anymore
It's not about us... Cause us is gone.

The crux of the matter

So what if I don't cry
So what if I don't care
You could always try
But I guess you won't dare

Help me out of my despair
Call on me with all your hurt
Ask me to come out and repair
Your lonely and broken heart

'Cause all the tears in the world
Can't help you there
Cause no feelings no word
Would make me care

So what if I don't cry
So what if I don't care
You could always try
But I guess you won't dare

And that's the crux of the matter
You misread something my love
Poker face ain't all above
And I thought you so clever

So want if I don't cry
Don't believe I don't care
Please don't just pass me by
Don't forget what we share

The bridge that burned...

No need to say it aloud, it was on everyone's mind
My best friend and all, the one I couldn't leave behind
Can't remember what he did to earn himself the title
Can't remember the moment, the joys and the struggles
But I can't help the loneliness now, the ongoing estrangement
I can feel the hurt on the phone, when I can't find anything to say
When I realize that everything we were, is turning to grey
It's not all on the paper. Could be in the sky
It's still in my dreams though, keep my eyes from being dry
And I'm willing to listen, if just for a moment longer
That thing that longs in my heart, that bugging whisper
If just to see if we can reconnect against all odes, all stories
Against life, burned bridge, broken links and cold coffees
Just a moment to forget that we're drifting apart
That there are some things even the greatest friendship can thwart
That I'm doing okay, even without the one I thought I couldn't live without.


The things a bad phone call can make you feel...
And to think, almost eight years to the day ago, I was writing the exact opposite.

Créateur amateur

Je ne suis pas d'humeur à écrire
L'esprit s'envole, les idées s'affolent
Cette page blanche me désole
Les muses semblent avoir quitté le navire

Les débuts sont toujours si difficiles
Mes rimes sont trouées et bien biscornues
Mais je m'échine, je m'épuise et je continue
Et les mots viennent enfin, trompeurs et peu dociles

Tant pis, je resterai poète amateur
Puisque je ne peux contraindre ces vers fuyants
Je ne peux pas mentir, je ne serai jamais voyant

Je ferai de moi-même un nouveau Créateur
J'inventerai d'autres codes, et suivrai mes envies
Je plongerai la poésie dans un monde de folie.

Ah ! Cette envie d'écrire qui taraude parfois, coucher quelque chose sur le papier n'importe quoi ! 
Et bien voilà, parfois ça peut donner ça, cette frustration extrême, impossible à traduire...
Je me suis amusée avec les rimes aujourd'hui. Avez vous trouvé le modèle ? Comptez mes syllabes...
10-11-12-13 ; 11-12-13-14 ; 12-13-14 ; 13-14-15.
Avec ceci, bonsoir ! 

Take revenge!

If your life is in shambles, go down with a bang
Don't cry a river over petty heartaches
Better lead on the fire demons to the hang
Than bleed your heart open over silly mistakes


Spit at the closing doors, spit at the gods' altar
Make a path for yourself when at a turning point
Create a roundabout and you won't disappoint
Elbow your worries, push through and you might go far


So what if the road is tough, don't collapse and cry
Just up for game, reply, again and again, try
From this point on, deepen, harden up, take revenge
And to the end, hope, believe, fight and defend...

Ok, it's really bad, it's not even good English.
But I really needed to pt it off my chest for a while now...

"Celle qui existe"


Regard charbonneux
Décolleté plongeant
Lèvres roue vif

Je ne suis pas moi,
Je suis une autre
Celle qui existe.

"Le Passage"

Et au final tout se voile, 
Comme un avis de passage
On est instant, on est mirage
Le simple maillon d'une toile


Et tout finit par s'estomper
On crache au coeur des souvenirs
Tout s'oublie, jusqu'à nos rires, 
Et la douleur d'une Fessée


Et pour demain recommencer
Saluer les gens, croiser le fer
S'agenouiller sur la pierre


Et toujours, en fin s'effacer
La lueur idoine de nos vies
La chaleur de la main amie.
