Lie to me darling

She wants to believe that you have come to stay
She wants to believe that you are what you pretend to be
She is listening to you, you are warm and confident
She is listening to you and wants to believe all she hears

But she believes that what has the power to bring us together
also reasonably has the power to bring us apart
She believes that everything built eventually also will be demolished
Still she holds you so gently everytime you are there

Maria Mena in consert

My favorite artist 

with the most beautiful lyrics

I am your stubborn hypocritical lover
Guarded by thorns of my past
You have been wounded, bled out
Anger gushing
And none of us thought it would last

The winds of your ego
The waves of my tears
Made the most perfect almighty storm
That we've seen this year
But experience gathered
We've learned from our past
So don't worry darling
This too shall pass

-Maria Mena-

Waiting for the miracle...

Baby, I've been waiting,
I've been waiting night and day.
I didn't see the time,
I waited half my life away.
There were lots of invitations 

but I was waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to come

I dreamed about you, baby.
It was just the other night.
Most of you was naked
Ah but some of you was light.
The sands of time were falling
from your fingers and your thumb,
and you were waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to come 

Ah baby, let's get married,
we've been alone too long.
Let's be alone together.
Let's see if we're that strong. 

Autumn in Bergen

Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all.

The ocean and me

It’s the ocean and me

We’re the ones to be

I always fall asleep

Beside the sea

And we’ve got a certain way

How it wakes me every day

I never know though

With what kind of wave

And you know about oceans

How brutally it can rush

Drown you, or calmly caress you

With a gentle touch

Past

One day at a time--this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone; 

and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come.

 Live in the present, and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering

Shade

I would feel the sunlight

But I could burn from everywhere

Now you must make me a shadow

I will shine for you in there
