F I'm just a writer wishing to inspire.
Sadness comes rarely, only at night, afternoon or in the morning. What's troubling me is this feeling of emptiness that's been wanting to suffocate me every time I step away from others. It's lurking, always prepared, always anticipating my soft hours so it can drop some knives in the vertigo and we can all have some fun with crows and tough air and broken glass and war and war dressed as peace. I want wings not legs, I want kisses not stares, I want someone who's not there.

Everything passes
What awaits for us, I’m afraid, is no longer a matter to be fixed, it’s a matter to be waited upon. Death of communication, degrading quality of society, the increasing low of the human mind. To let yourself care is a foul choice. Comfort is the goal, but comfort is such an easy thing to achieve.   To strive for something more is a mystery that needs explaining, but with time is going to be laughed at. Leaders don’t provide security but only intensify disbelief and doubt. With the sense of comradeship gone extinct goes courage. One can’t change for the better when all we’re facing is change but a phony one, filled with false hope. It’s not surprising that no one has ˝the itch˝. What’s surprising is that we still get out of bed in the morning, ready for rescue, thinking that today may be the moment of turning.

The dawning
Take me down to Africa Where rhythm moves the river Where feet dance in dirt Where spirits make a soul shiver Child, feel life's worth.

Africa
Rhino eyes get watered from the sky While I'm here saying goodbye Those sullen never ending look a backs But I never did cry. Wood gets old and scarred I remember the night you poured vain into my heart Hollow was your eyes But I never did cry. Dogs barking all around Never was there a more forlorn sound The same thing's inside my mind But I never did cry. Following a bug up the wall Hiding from the sun I with it began to crawl But I never did cry. Brown lights **** with moths The carnival's long gone Summer breeze died young But I never did cry. I never did cry.

Denim heart
The cause of my reasons has no similarity to your thoughts and suffering Your lips don’t move my mind and focus stays primarily on the background Your eyes don’t reach me, I lied before in that unforgivable way and unfortunately I don’t see you I see only with my blood, pressured with rage through my veins And images, oh those reprobate veils under which you feed of me, you tragically disregarded mirror, a misunderstood projection of someone who was someone, maybe myself, a long time ago. Disoriented I thole, not knowing is getting too familiar. The touch you give me, it’s angry, feels nothing in return The touch becomes nothing and all falls together Eyes, words, a hand, a soul Begin to crumble under a table, glasses long before emptied In hope to make you meet my eyes in the moment I should meet yours In hope to make you touch me and in return feel the warmth In hope to make you make me say the words you want to hear I don’t know if you’re real but you’re more real than me I know that for sure.

A dream's dream
Anorexic branches of weeping willows Get played by the wind A hungry man pushes milk on a trolley Strolls by corpses for their sins skinned. All this shines under morning rays of Melancholy. Soft sounds of Rachmaninoff Make nature in frames move Holy is the feeling of freedom Every escape of mine freedom does approve. All this shines under morning rays of Melancholy. Silver collars of workmen All washed and left to dry Empty parks and streets get haunted As years go by. All this shines under morning rays of Melancholy. Hordes of suits pour in crimson rooms Stacked with greed From floor to roof Indeed fast they run when they smell the truth. All this shines under morning rays of Melancholy. Shadows go around Green dies and again is reborn Every year with even less sound than before Corpses still hang, God wants more And all this shines 'Till one day it sets on fire Burnt is the last proud buyer Melancholy stands still, stopping to admire Then walks away, She understands; The world has expired.

Morning rays of Melancholy
Trembles of the sea Are trembles of your soft words. Moonlight patches on the surface Make up for your salted cheeks. Cries from comforting depths As abyss drowning your eyes. Gentle brushes against the shore Are hands wiping and whispering - ˝No more.˝ The painful flight of birds Is your soul dreaming The sound of cheering Is you saying my name The play of violins Is you singing and your display In the silver mirroring game (we all play). Hard wooden floors await your fall But you only feel Trembles of the sea, Moonlight, Depths. They offer you the sky but you know that's just another cage So every night you tap little bits of rage In paper that listens 'Till one day it glistens And again you hear Soft brushes against the shore, Pleasant hands wiping and whispering - ˝No more.˝

The Circle
Drying upon me Silver strings that parade All throughout town Tonight for two minutes Made me blind. Warm lights speak of men who were braver than today And I sit and listen, trying hard not to stare I'll dig my eyes up hoping the hopes will go away just so I can feel and breathe better than I did yesterday. Freedom must be a wild thing to possess I wish my boots would take me where bliss is justified Where there's no cries, no need for crimes Where it's not so hard to make my mind satisfied. Drying upon me Silver strings that parade All throughout town Tonight for two minutes Made me blind.

Silver rain
Watching people drifting from one port to another What matters is the trip say the others But me, I wouldn't mind never coming to an end Floating in an open sea until I start to fade And stars above me sing to my name For I touched them with words when they needed strength. The oak wood softens as it never did before It remembers my fists whenever we heard of wars The sunlight still beams, dancing with the waves My loved one still laughs like it's the first day we met And the wind dries my eyes That way I won't cry When they come for me And it's my time to say goodbye.

To my sailor
Dead but free is what they talk about in alleys Of whispers they make beds And lay with their lies While dreams stand aside, too close to the fire As soon as they melt, the Lord becomes a liar.
