Silence,
Lovely Silence,
Morbid Silence,
Sacred Silence.
Silence,
Lord of all the ideas,
Lord of the sorrow.
Silence and sorrow
walk side by side,
like two lovers in the dark woods
They got lost on their way,
and just have each other
to guide themselves by the way.
Silence,
Silence,
Shhhhh...
Ladies and Gentlemen,
We reached the end of a trip,
a journey to my inner
my mind
my spirit,
my soul and
my body
You witnessed the birth
the grow
and the fall of a poet
You traveled beyond the gates of the mind
beyond the horizon
beyond life and death
Ladies and gentlemen,
You are about to witness
my fall again
Ladies and gentlemen,
this is my end.
Goodbye
I opened my mouth and coughed out the wings
Throwing up the colors,
From once beautiful things.
They crawl up my throat,
And pry through my teeth,
Revealing the darkness,
I've hid underneath.
Her words echo in my head,
I try to stand.
But fall instead.
They no longer had that fluttery feel.
I guess the love had lost its appeal.
I cough and clutch at the hole in my chest.
Thinking ironically,
Is this just love at its best?
She said she hates the world.
But I know she loves it so,
I have seen her on the hill,
With the evening afterglow.
She feeds them with my beating heart
Enticing them
Like the sweetest tart.
While clut
What is it about the darkness?
You lie awake in bed
Staring into nothing
And you feel the fear like frostbite.
Shapes are warped
And sounds echo
But you're not scared of what's in front of you.
You're scared of what's in you.
Because in the dark you are alone.
There is nothing to keep your attention away from the madness in your head.
Thoughts can be heard in the silence.
Memories can be seen in the emptiness.
You can't sleep.
You can only think
And hurt
And fall.
If you walked by me on the street,
Would our eyes meet?
If you found me sitting all alone,
Would you take me home?
Love at first sight seems too unreal,
But it's there, it's you, it's what I feel.
A delicate kiss grows ever stronger,
Then I'm wishing you'd stay a little longer.
If I gave you my heart on a silver plate,
Would that reverse our fate?
If I took your hand and never let go,
Would your love grow?
Cut me open along each vein,
Love has come and gone again.
Drowning in an empty bed at night,
Life is a struggle; a hopeless fight.
If I held you down and made you stay,
Would that be love, in some cruel way?
If I left and
I am broken inside
but I refuse to hide
my mind is torn
in separate directions,
caught between
two impossibles
I can never have,
my heart has gone
to one man
who cannot hold it,
and my body
craves another
who does not seek it.
Before me
are fallen ashes
of a future which
can never be,
and behind me,
the burnt photographs
of memories
that will not set me free.
In my days I walk
in a waking dream
of bittersweet
tenderness
and fading love.
While my nights
are spent in
torment
in contorted desires,
and unchained
lust for a phantom touch
of the unattainable.
In between two worlds
unseen by both,
Maybe you'll find me
with purple hair
dripping wet
dancing on a park bench
singing in the rain
full of tears
hitting the high notes
a thousand colours rubbing off like chalk
fading into
the cracks in the pavement
Maybe you won't think, then
that I am
an enigma,
but merely this simple
being
who lives and loves
and needs.
When my day is blue
and I am green with envy,
we need the white moon
and yellow sun
to brigten our life.
To know the red blood
is running strong in our veins
as my friends and I
paint this world pink in joy.
