Halfway the path of this mortality I found myself running from my life Blinded by my own self who couldn’t stare to the past and didn’t care to guide As I stumbled ahead where no soul was allowed where the sad sky doomed such piece of land Got myself stuck to the ground More and more trapped in quicksand Sink even more if I tried to get out Surrounded by ***** actions, touches, thoughts Knees so deep and no others to shout Reduced to anger and screaming across the sky and above even under the plains Even though it’s existence i’ve never considered Looking desperately for that one being to blame Oh if only I was given a mirror

I’m stuck
I didn’t remember you slept here last night I got up and you were there as no invite was needed You barged into my dreams and ahead was blur I just needed a cup of coffee and there you were again As high as the trees and with your long hair I could swear to myself you really weren’t there You and your book always so focused in the higher branches You were the one up there and I got the scratches I never really knew why you needed that tree to read you book I kept waiting and calling not worth of even a look you used to live here You lived and i woke up .

About a dream
Now every night starts the same; Go to bed and as if by mistake, Body failing to obey, so tame, ceasing the fight to stay awake. FOCUS My body is long gone by now And somehow i´m still awake; For my consciousness refuses to bow Welcoming my own sorrow and ache. FOCUS Feeling numb with anticipation Of losing control of ones mind; To bring life to such horrid imagination; was there nothing else to find? FOCUS I feel it´s weight upon my chest And someone´s voice, can´t recognize; The need to move so i can rest, that even a blink would be a prize. FOCUS
