When That Time Comes ..

When that time comes, that I look at you but don’t see you, that I touch you but don’t
feel you, when your always around but never there .. I want the skies to scatter into a
million grains of lifeless dry sand .. and the mountains to melt into a billion droplets
of suffocating moisture .. so I can either be lost in an endless desert or drown in an
endless ocean .. when I gaze to your eyes with my heart screaming ‘HEAR ME’ and my soul
shrieking in agonizing misery ‘PLEASE GET ME OUT OF THIS DARKNESS’ .. to find my rivers
blocked by your mighty dams with no way to pass through .. I want this world to face my
rage so I burn it down with one fake smile from one fake heart, for I am nothing at that
point but the strongest I can ever be .. so bring your deserts and spill your oceans, for
I'm the one who taught the wolves to kill and the whales to sing .. when that time comes,
I thank you .. but you, you’ll be gone.
farewell ..

My Dying Soul

I wake up everyday, wishing that my past is just a bad nightmare. Just to see myself
starring at the same sealing again. Just when I think there's a glimpse of hope hiding
somewhere behind the darkness, I look at my chest to find the same old hole in a place
where once a heart had beaten. Where is the beauty in this world now that what I had is
gone, what happened to love from first sight and fairy tales in real life? How does such
thing vanish if it ever was true? Why have you kept me in an illusion for so long, I was
once a human with a pure soul. How can you convince yourself that glass is diamond, and
still move on. While I'm the one who would've worshiped you if it wasn't for god's sake.
My life was priceless to save a tear from your beautiful eyes, it was yours .. All yours.
As strong as a man tries to be, and stand tall. Yet not even mountains can stand forever.
I don't bleed in blood, I bleed in words, for what I have left is just the expressions of
a dying soul .. Xx My Dying Soul xX.

Naïve Brain - ( Back Stabbed )

For a second there
in my lousy little life
there used to be a someone
who made me smile
and to me
I have this rule
Never to hate someone
That once made me smile
******************
But the feeling is inexplicable
When that specific someone
Put an ice cold dagger in my back
fire burning lava in my throat
When I knew a truth that I shouldn’t have
A truth that shouldn’t exist as a truth
And for a second there
In that little lousy life of mine
With my little naive brain
And my heart blinded by kindness
I thought .. I believed more like it
That this someone
Felt back what I felt
Or ever at least shared a thought
******************
But you I thank
You who stood there at that very moment
To show me the light
Out of a dark night
Of fake hopes and false thoughts
To lead me to shore
In a sea only covered by foggy misery
But I tell that someone
That if good ever returned to bad
What bad did to good
Then you would’ve seen a day
Where good is no better than bad
And smartness is not empty talk
Its not talk at all
But beware what a smart one thinks
Or what he does
and fear him most
*******************
The heart beats for two
For love it beats
And for truth
These are my thoughts
I live by them
They live in me
And if these thoughts
Are dumb
I never want to be smart.

Lonely Dreamer On Valentines Day ..

If I had you my angel ..
I would speak
For as long as there is a breath in my lungs
I would use
As many words as humans have ever created
I would imagine
All kinds of descriptions anyone can think of
But I wouldn’t even come close
To describing the way I feel
When I think of my angel
When I listen to my angel
When I look at my angel
*******
Her thought would shift me away..
To another world .. another reality
One where im better
Where everything is alright
And nothing can ever go wrong
No worries .. no sadness
No burden carried along
********
Her voice would make me fly..
To a higher place
Where all is worthless
so sweet to my ears
That it’ll make
my complex mind go in harmony
With my beating heart
And the only thing that would matter is her
My heart would dance in love
My thoughts would fly in happiness
*******
And her look..
As painted by my brain
Oh god what a look !!
Notice how you shiver
From a powerful human gaze
Now imagine how I’de shiver
If an angel gives that gaze
She can hold my soul among her eyes
Between a wink and another I’de die
My world will shut closed
When her look at me is paused
********
If I had you I’de only think :..
Im so lucky .. I envy me
My guardian angel is watching me
My god I love that girl so much
I have her in the world
I lived a life with a lifeless goal
And walked the earth without my soul
Until the day I saw her face
At first I felt I am so small
So tiny so unconfident
How can I ever reach up
To the angel of beauty itself
Then she came and blessed my life
And since that day on I know my goal
I also know that shes my soul
I love you would be nothing
Not in my dictionary
I adore you wont be even close
To express how I feel about my angel
I told you before
And I tell you again
********
If I had you
I would speak
For as long as there is a breath in my lungs
I would use
As many words as humans have ever created
I would imagine
All kinds of descriptions anyone can think of
But I wouldn’t even come close
To describing the way I feel
When I think of my angel
When I listen to my angel
When I look at my angel

What If

what if you open your eyes
and your whole life
is merely a dream
an unheard scream

what if you look upon yourself
and your reflection
is just obscene
a censored scene

what if you feel the skies
and the stars
are imperfections
defective sections

what if you speak in lies
and the truth
is deception
a form of fiction

what if you had the choice
to drown forever
in illusion or
would you rather
face the fact?

An endless confusion

Between the Devils Horns ..

I have you in my sight
Far behind those thorns
On a mountain so high
Between the devil's horns

Where a fake smile on my face
And heaven under my feet
Somehow seem out of place
For its you who causes my beat

Shall I rise and draw my sword
All crippled and face the beast
As I’m a pillar that carries my world
Shall I move and risk my seat

Let it fall to please myself
As I might forever perish?
Or let it dust up on a shelf
Obedient to the morals I cherish?

Back In Time

Lets go back to a time
when
The only thing that got you high
was your father’s shoulders
your worst fall
was a foot high
the only woman in your life
was your mother
and your worst enemy 
was coughing syrup
a time when
not doing your homework
was your worst sin
having a burden meant
next week’s physics exam
when a broken heart
was glued back
when hopes were
the new game on the market
when you were 
the person you never wanted to turn into ..

A Different Story

the sun once raised in a time
when i thought i had it all
the world, the universe, was mine
i never thought I'd ever fall

until one day i hear a squeak
and up to heaven i pull my eyes
i stare and ogle to get a peak
and there an angel towards me flies

the sun now set, its another time
i lost my throne and all my glory
still in the dark her light will shine
my god, this girl .. a different story

like a name written on a sandy shore
taken away by salty waves
she disappears with nothing more
than a distant look and silent waves

again that squeak someday i hear
i look up, and among the clouds
her face is carved, shouting im here
this time im staying, i take my vows.

Another Empty Thought ..

Never ending thoughts of endless matters
Just seem to vacate my heavy brain
One keeps coming that what if time shatters
Among ourselves and within our veins

What if I stand and yell GO BACK
Go back for the love of god if you may!
A decade of time is all I lack
To be another one with no mistakes

But no you wont for you never do
Leaving me here to suffer and weep
Why have I and why not?! .. starring at you
With eyes full of blood .. for they never sleep

I wish I did that and I wish I didn’t
But you don’t care oh great TIME you are
You never stop.. I bet you couldn’t!
Just a bigger puppet how miserable you are

That’s just my thought .. the one of many
Crazy or insane I may be perhaps
But just look back and watch how many
Have gone simply mad over such facts

Can I

Can I write
Until my pen dries
Until my pupils dilate
And my brain itches
Until my fingers rust 
And my glasses dust
Until my heart twitches

Can I scream 
Until my throat sores
Until my lungs shrivel
And my voice disappears
Until my veins bulge
And my overwhelm is capitulated
Until my eyes tear

Can I love
Until wars end
Until the universe bends
And death revives
Until a child matures
And hatred cures
Until forever dies
