Stairs

Stairs

A Poem by Johanna
"

I saw a man siting on some stairs outside an a house.. and this poem came to my mind.

"

Fearless love, bittersweet taste

She slammed the door in my face

Pace outside for hours

Gave her chocolate, gave her flowers

Gave her my heart, for her to keep

Gave her my dreams when I fell asleep

Now it´s all gone, taken by the wind

Me, her, us, everything

 

I´m sitting outside, waiting for her

Annoying her neighbor

I´m not leaving until we talk

Until she sees my tears

And our life I´ve painted on the stairs

The red is love

Blue is sorrow

White is hope for tomorrow

The green is our dreams that haven´t come true yet

Purple is everything I regret

In between there are drops of yellow

It´s for everything I don´t know

And as it starts to rain our life is a rainbow

In the rain the colour slips away

Revealing the stone, cold and gray

The flowers on the roadside gather dew

While I keep waiting

The grey is me, missing you

 

I think while I wait for her to come out

At last I don´t know what I´m thinking about

Our story is one heard many times

Love that fails

A boy who cries

Depressing tale

Of regret and lies

I went down the wrong track

Words that can´t be taken back

I felt heaven kiss my face

Now I´m locked out outside her place

But our story is not the same

I will not let her forget my name

I´m not one of those sad men

Who lost love, saw it end

Because I know for sure

They never loved their woman

As much as I love her
