Alternate Reality

The lonely evening falls again The night is fast becoming my favourite friend Where the moon it shimmers all over your skin Let out the bad vibes Invite the freedom in Ride we must our dreams through the night The hazy traffic stickiness fading Leading traces of forgotten memories Blank as these sheets of paper the future awaits The past flutters, torn out notebooks Ashes in the rain It was there I saw you Lying in the dirt Blackened eyes crying Little fingers tug my senses open A drugged-up film These memories toxic and sweet Passing through veins and skin Flesh and bones Everything will break Only the strong will survive
