Harsh mistress

Close enough to touch

But careful if you try

Though she looks as warm as gold

The moon’s a harsh mistress

The moon can be so cold

-Jimmy Webb-



Bergen by night

Explore

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed

 by the things that you didn't do

 than by the ones you did do

 So throw off the bowlines

 Sail away from the safe harbor

 Catch the trade winds in your sails

Afterglow

 

When I look back

I see the landscapes

That I have walked through

But it is different

All the great trees are gone

It seems there are

Remnants of them

But it is the afterglow

Inside of you

Of all those you met

Who meant something in your life

-Olav Rex-

Time

Your priorities are where you spend your time



Grief

This grief overwhelms me

It burns in my stomach

This loss is numbing me

It pierces my chest

I thought we'd be simple together

But i was sadly mistaken

 

 

Their last view together

And they were holding each other tight

by this beautful view

 He gently stroked her hair away from her face

and then he kissed her

This was their last kiss

by this beautiful view

The next day he poured her heart out

and left it on the floor

 

Hold my hand

If you just hold my hand

I promise that I'll do all I can

Cause when it gets dark and when it gets cold

We can just hold each other till we see the sunlight

Things will get better if you just hold my hand

The door

And if I told you about my dreams of you and me,

 would you walk out the door

 and leave me?

Dreams

We all have our time machines.

Some take us back, they're called memories.

 Some take us forward, they're called dreams

Mountain

Never measure the height of a mountain until you have reached the top.

 Then you will see how low it was...



Private emotion

 

It’s a private emotion that fills me tonight

And a silence falls between us

As the shadows steal the light

And wherever you may find it

Wherever it may lead

Let your private emotion come to me

It runs both ways, open up your eyes

Can’t you see me here, how can you deny

Let your private emotion come to me

Somebody like you

And I'm letting go of all my yesterdays

I've forgiven myself for the mistakes I've made

Now theres just one thing I wanna do

I wanna feel the moonlight shining down on me and you

When you put your arms around me

I know theres nothing in this world I can't do

I wanna love somebody like you

I wanna love you

I swear

Self hatred grows in me like cancer

I can’t locate its whereabouts but it's feasting on its host.

Self-fulfilling prophecy

You’re the only guaranteed loyalty

In this world,

Full of violent mothers

Starving daughters

Leaving lovers.

I swear to you

 I’ll never trust again.

Light

There are two ways of spreading light

 to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.

-Edith Wharton-

Wonderland

We all have our time machines.

 Some take us back, they're called memories.

 Some take us forward, they're called dreams

And this day was like a dream

A dream in wonderland

Bright moon

Faith turns up when you don't really expect it.

 Its like one day you realize that the fairy tale may be slightly different than you dreamed.

The castle, well, it may not be a castle.

 And its not so important happy ever after, just that its happy right now.

 See once in a while, once in the bright moon,

 people will surprise you ,

 and once in a while people may even take your breath away.

Daughters



I know a girl

She puts the color inside of my world

And she's just like a maze

Where all of the walls all continually change

 

Fathers, be good to your daughters

Daughters will love like you do

Girls become lovers who turn into mothers

So mothers, be good to your daughters too

-John Mayer-

You move me



This is how it seems to me

Life is only therapy

Real expensive

And no guarantee

You go laughing  in the dark

Making light of it

And I follow with my heart

Laughing all the way

Cause you move me

Now I’m taking delight

In every little thing

How you move me

Shadows

You left me shadows

Etched on the wall

You left me echoes

Footsteps in the hall

I feel like a shadow

Walking behind who you think I am

Just like my shadow



Unlovable

Are my lips unkissable?

Are my eyes unlookable?

Is my skin untouchable?

Are my words unlistenable?

Are my hands untouchable?

Am I undesirable?

Am I unlovable?

You made me feel like my mother, she abandoned me

You made me feel like the act of love is empty

Am I so unlovable?

Is my heart unbreakable?

Do I remind you of a part of you that you despise?

Not a commercial

It`s just my passion for hdr and travelling

The curve of the moon

I saw you in the curve of the moon

I looked into your

iceblue eyes

And I asked myself...

Is it really possible for a men

 to be so perfectly, perfectly beautiful?



Suddenly

Suddenly the world seems like a better place

Suddenly the days moves with a better grace

Suddenly the life doesn't seem such a waste

And maybe it`s because of you...



Surreal

Chauffeur?

Is it possible to open the backdoor?

In speed, please?

Winter in HDR

~ One kind word can warm three winter months. ~

When the time is right

There will be one day when the time is right

When everything fall into perfect alignment

When you can`t help smiling
thinking about someone
someone special


Lying on soft green grass looking out on the ocean

The wind keeps blowing

There is nothing left to think about

You look at the sky and those clouds are moving slowly

Peacefully

Time flies

You don`t even notice the sun is setting

Those birds are going home

It`s getting darker

The moon is back

You start to wonder....

how many stars are in the milky way

The universe is a mystery

There will be a time when the time is right



What comes around goes around...

Karma it's not unfair.

It's not unexpected.

It just evens the score.

We reap what we sow.

What comes around goes around.

Sometimes

These days I feel broke inside, but I won't admit
Sometimes I just want to hide, cause it's you I miss

There's nothing I wouldn't do

To see you and hold you close again

Sometimes I want to call you but I know you won't be "there"

 I've hurt myself by loving you

Trust

People ask me why it's so hard to trust people

and I ask them why is it so hard to keep a promise...

 

 

 

Serendipity

We were just passers by...

Walking on the streets to nowhere

It could have lastet forever

We slippet away

Maybe we were never there

Serendipity

If only we stayed

If only we waited

Just for a couple more minutes

That day



Den siste kvelden i året

Den siste kvelden i året,

men hun var ikke der hun egentlig ønsket å være.

Hun hadde flyktet bort fra alle minnene.

Minnene som egentlig skulle vært gode...

Hun tenkte tilbake på kvelden for et år siden...

Men nå satt hun her,

på en helt annen breddegrad

i sommerkjole

på en plass hvor solen alltid skinte

og hver eneste solnedgang var vakker.

Hun så utover havet 

 lurte på hvordan kvelden ville bli.

Snart skulle hun reise hjem igjen,

til sin kalde hjemplass.

Det hadde vært en befrielse å være her.

Hun kunne ønske hun slapp å reise hjem igjen...

Merry Christmas

Christmas is tenderness for the past, courage for the present, hope for the future.

Merry Christmas

 and

Happy New Year

Slowly fade away

And I watch with a breaking heart as you slowly fade away.

 I find myself straining to remember everything about those moments,

 everything about you.

 But soon, always too soon,

 your image vanishes and the fog rolls back to its far away place

 and I am alone again

 and I do not care what others think

 as I bow my head and cry

Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving.

 What you have caught on film is captured forever...

 it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.

Notice me...

Notice me, take my hand

Why are we strangers..

Everytime I try to fly, I fall

Without my wings, I feel so small

I guess I need you

And everytime I see you in my dreams

I see your face, it's haunting me

I guess I need you

At night I pray

That soon your face will fade away

All I want...

for Christmas is

peace of mind

 peace of heart

 and peace of soul



Christmas

Remember,
 if Christmas isn't found in your heart,
 you won't find it under a tree...

Silence

 I don't hear a sound

But my own voice

Silence

A Shattered Dream

A cloud does not know why it moves in just such a direction and at such a speed...

It feels an impulsion...this is the place to go now.

 But the sky knows the reasons and the patterns behind all clouds,

 and you will know, too, when you lift yourself high enough to see beyond horizons

-Richard Bach-

 

The true dream

Maybe we accept the dream has become a nightmare.
 We tell ourselves that reality is better.
 We convince ourselves it's better that we never dream at all.
But, the strongest of us, the most determined of us, holds on to the dream or we find ourselves faced
with a fresh dream we never considered.
 We wake to find ourselves, against all odds, feeling hopeful.
And, if we're lucky, we realize in the face of everything, in the face of life
 the true dream is being able to dream at all



Just words

He had a word, too. Love, he called it.

 But I had been used to words for a long time.

 I knew that that word was like the others: just a shape to fill a lack; that when the right time came, you wouldn't need a word for that anymore than for pride or fear.
It was just a word

Magical winter wonderland

Sometimes

 when I lug around a camera

I can be lucky to be in the right place at the right time

Heading for the light

I've wandered around with nothing more than time on my hands

I was lost in the night

And at times it was so blue and lonely

Been close to the edge, hanging by my fingernails

And I couldn't see the sign that warned me, I'm

Heading for the light

I didn't see that big black cloud hanging over me

And when the rain came down I was nearly drowned

My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway

Heading for the light

Frozen

I can't feel my senses

I just feel the cold

All colours seem to fade away

The river's frozen once again

The cold shine behind

The frozen stream

Reminds me of your eyes

Ta aldri noen for gitt

Ta aldri noen for gitt 

 Hold hvert menneske du er glad i nær hjertet ditt

 For en dag våkner du kanskje opp og innser,

 at du har mistet en Diamant

 mens du var opptatt med å samle gråstein



Life

 Always try to keep a patch of sky above your life

 -Marcel Proust-





If I could ...

If I could bring down the moon to you

I would

but even that

would ever be enough

Når vinteren kommer

Når vinteren kommer, kan da våren være langt unna?
