a final truth

Why?
Why do we bother living at all?
Where is the purpose of life?
We stopped decades ago answering any god‘s call.
Why this struggle to be famous and rich?
Why don‘t we break free?
We‘re all blinded by the lights, deaf from the high pitch,
I want to hear, to see!
Look around your home, ask around,
All these kids, ask what their dreams are about.
They are innocent, and pure, waiting to be found.
Some of them want to become a knight, a pirate, astronaut,
Why did they stop dreaming?!
Because they were told to, „Live in the real world.“,
In the end, this is growing-up‘s meaning...
To grow up means to throw away the dreams you once had so dear hold.
I‘ve become a writer, an author,
Because I don‘t want to let go.
I want to share my dreams, that‘s what they‘re for,
I want to be a hero in a world of foes.
In this world, there are just three things
That are worth living for: Love, hope and dreams.
You could rule the world, be king amongst kings,
But without these things, you‘d truly be poor, a sarcastic justice, it seems.
The reason, why I write, why I dream,
The reason for every single one,
Is because I‘m trying to become a creator, and find a realm,
In which there are heroes, and love ‘n hope, and no one, who‘s alone.
I‘m trying to find a life
That‘s worth living it, warm, and not frozen,
No greed, no war, no one drawn to strife.
With my dreams I‘m trying to create a world unbroken.
Of course these worlds are not real, just a fantasy
Yet truth is not a thing, but an idea bold:
It must be created, lost and found, so you can see.
Find your own, find your world;
Don‘t trust a man who says his is the crown,
Stop pursuing other men dreams,
It‘s time to chase and find your own;
Your inner world is brighter than it seems---

The Demons

Too much to do
Time runs out
And my demons roar
Behind my mouth

The voices in my head
Are knocking me out
So much to feel
Rage behind my mouth

Look into my eyes
See the flaming spread
There‘s no way out
From the demons in my head

No end, no beginning
No change, no line
And the demons are still singing
In my head, out of time

The flames in my eyes
Burning my soul down
While I hear them singing
So clear, so loud

No silence, no silence
But then I close my eyes, freeze
Let my heart burn down
To find at least a blink of peace
I wrote this little rhyme when I once was told by my mom to do a huge bunch of things. I were really under pressure, and just wanted to scream, as suddenly the first phrase came into my mind. I wrote it down and sung it silently while I made the tasks, and it really saved me from a tantrum back there.

I just can't fall asleep
Thoughts racing through my head in pain
Please, I just want some peace
I've written this Haiku after trying to fall asleep for 2 hours... I think I fell asleep another hour later...😳👈🖤

meet me there.
over the horizon,
where the line between the sky and mountains
ceases to exist.
where my canvas remains bare
and blindingly white.
yearning
yearning
to be painted.

splatter me with hues of colours,
then leave me
leave me unfinished.

so i dissolve
my very essence
pooling at my feet.
now a murky shade of brown
i seep to the ground
and lay there.

but a tiny flower blooms in my wake.
nothing but a fragment of what once thrived.
ive been gone for quite a while.
physically and mentally

i etched the shape of an eye
on the sidewalk
but the chalk was washed away
the dust running in rivulets
down the street.
lost it's way,
lost it's reason.
been feeling quite lost for quite sometime.
what am i even doing with my life?
