My blue walls
echo somber calls
Of people I've met along the way

I'm alone
But not really
These ghosts have made their stay

One by one
You come to me
But there isn't a word you would obey

You sing
My heart open
I let you, I know you well, I know you are okay

I've been thinking lately
Nightly thoughts, taking lightly my daily oughts
I still seek what I have always sought
I still feel caught, by the same highs, my sane lows
As far as I know, that's how each story goes
You dip your toes, your ears and nose
You flip stones, you bring light to your foes
You go back...
To feel that the lack
Is no more
And you
Endure

Every morning we find ourselves
Being in this world
How funny is the thought of that
How absurd are the words

Seldom do we think like this
So sure we are of all
But children ask us many a thing
How to sleep and not to fall

Why can one be bored of this
It's a curious fact of life
The forgetting nature common place
Of ourselves we look to find

In my good moments
I merely lean forward
Relaxed and emerged into the future

This perfection I understand
As time ticking away

Yet why is there this state of imperfection
When I feel I'm not here, nor there
Something absurd gripping me
Throwing me sideways

And both being equally euphoric
I do wonder
How would one go about separating these two
For I do like them both

Separately

I like the way I like
Like the like of mine
Yes, Likeness can be likeable
But the way I like is fine

To think like you've never thought before
Feel like you've never felt before
Concentrate, don't move
Let it come. Let it come!
You beautiful *******
Unleash yourself
Into your own world
Give in! Please!

So that one day
you'd have a candle
perhaps even a lighthouse
Guiding you through the long nights

They will come
There is no question
but what will come of you
Who will urge you?

World seems pretty set
Everything follows its natural path
But us

Why did you eat that apple
I don't know anymore
I think?
