The Crumbs

What's left of the crumbs, leave it to me.
His cries tore my ailing eardrums, my skin as blue as the calm of country nights
Then I sank under the mud of the battlefield, My heart sank like the stars of the raging galaxy, My wet hair and the mirror watching my majestic body, Save me under the scorching sun, Then it forms a roof of emeralds, And the bright lights of the stars blind my brown eyes, Then the moon caresses my soul, Loneliness gnaws at my chest, Where we? Do you even understand my words when I write to you? Or do you see it as beautiful to complicate the meanings?
My perfection blinded your accumulated heart with the fading colors of autumn
You were my dream, and I was your excuse, and your lips were wine, and I was addicted. So can I have another cup for this night?
My hair dances in the morning breeze, then I mention your name sprinkled with lilies of the valley, or iris, or a mixture of roses for touching you, in my dark fantasies under the veil of violet twilight, then you captivate me with the sparkle of your eyes, will you allow me to look at it hesitantly like a silent symphony?
Then I go and jump between the leaves of the sacred tree
and drink the nectar of dew drops as if it were from heaven

Kiss Me Until the Sun Rises From the West

I kiss this cigarette and it's killing me
But I admire the beauty of its smoke
Like flying into space without a helmet
O hands tickle core and speak silence
While burning lung cells and no one
A sour taste in our flaming tongues
Choke me with your judgmental gaze
The poison is sweet, hard as a stone
Then the emptiness of the delusional hope
Lord, I am your servant in the end
Bowing and reverence, where am I?
Let's cry letters and write with your blood
Like mountains in the shape of a crumbling face
Then we curse the Greek gods as a joke
And the rain extinguished the fire that lit up my scarlet eyes like no one had ever done before
The light disappeared and the sparks brought me back from my dull dreams
Then I looked up at the sky, crying with clouds and for the wet cigarette
    "But it has become a part of me"
Kiss me until the sun rises from the west

Idealism Or Someone

What do you see in my emaciated emerald eyes?
Idealism or someone lost in love and hatred
Birds eat my meat thrown on the clean floor
  A death sentence has passed on my sick neck
Don't grind your teeth as you walk on my rotting body
My blood has become fertilizer for the roads of the raging seas
The breeze plays with our scattered hearts, then the calm of the nights
And your turbulent feelings as material for my disordered heart
The fingers of the gods are pointing at my brain, lying on the table
And the devils enjoy the smell of my guts in the bathtub
And there you see my hopes floating like a pure beast
where am I?
Why do you see me and embrace my soul after all that?
Your eardrum is dull, let's blow it
Or blew my heart after you research its place in the "home"

An Umbrella

My eyes softened from the intensity of the lights
As if the sun shrinks in the midst of the noisy nights
Then we close my ears so as not to hear cursing
And throwing stones as if I disgraced the village
Eternity or raising hands to embrace the angels
My heart is sinking like four stars extinguished
Dusk kisses me and then goes and lets me hug myself
And then I'm lying down with stabbing blood drenching me
Then you leave me like a painting by a crazy painter
And in my hands a pen and paper colored red, like me
My heart dipped in tossed bread crumbs for the park duck
I want to die, but I'm afraid. Lord, give me another moment
Seeing my life in the eyes of someone who considers me transient
The rain wets me. I'm waiting for you to give me an umbrella
Or wait for you to hold my frozen hand under the cold drops

Our Co2

Hydrochloric acid fell on my hands and my eye
The sharp moon and the terror of the dim sky
It cuts me off with a spun of petals and a sigh
The ink of the pen on my cheeks, then my paper
Then words I didn't smoke in my bathroom sink
A mosaic with feces and the atoms of the universe
Turn your head to the left, then up, then right, are they right?
Individuals lost in time then harden marrow
The sunny hill caresses my ears with headless wings fly
We already feel the difficulty of breathing, where is the co2
The mustard seeds in the fern gardens have crystallized
I'm there for me and then here for you until you burn my skin
It was inflamed under the collar and presented an ugly sight
I am for you until I am as fine dust as pure snowflake
