Everything holds a power,
to give you
pain or pleasure
Close enough to breathe your air
I'm reaching another star
in the sphere, all above care
so far, so very far
A goodbye.
I'd like to disappear once again
let people wonder in vain
give a reason to be someone's pain
that is how I was trained.
I'd like to take the blame
with feeling no shame
burn in the fiery angry flame
try me to make me tame
but effect won't be the same.
I'm far gone to be sane
my path is not on that lane.

My love for you didn't perish
In our clash of silent indifference
That devoured me whole
And tore me apart from you
Instead
In our departure
I became the moon
Forever separated by a force of unrequited attraction
And pushed and pulled by the invisible strings of tidal longings
That never bring me close enough to you
Yet
I tirelessly revolve around you
To give you light when your sun is too weary to
And hide in the dark at your brightest,
Afraid to steal any light away from you.
I have always been here for you
Whether or not you knew.
Whether or not you loved me too.

If the Earth vanishes
The sun still rises
But, what about the moon;
I am lost in orbit without you
Fringes away from
Drifting further and further deep
into the dark abyss unknown.
Still, I struggle to remain close to you
(Or where you were)
Pulled by the elusive sight of the light that once
Dawned and dusked on
Both me and you
Savouring whatever sweet traces that's left of you
Embracing the illusive presence of you
Hoping one day you would unexpectedly return in place
And your leaving had brought me ever closer to
You.

Everyday
From when I open my eyes
Till I bid adieu to the unwilling nights
I sit empty minded
And refresh

Old news
Refresh

Samething
Refresh

Silence
Refresh

Nothing ever changes
No one ever answers
Except the hollow fear
And knowing emptiness

Still,
I sit
And
Refresh.

Time forges the rivulets of my heart
In their contorted paths
Till I know not their ways

I always thought they would lead me
To new beginnings
Open roads to another heart
From a knotted birth

Till I have exhausted
Enough of them
To realize that
Though they may seem
To be traveling towards
Other turning threads
Of enigmatic goals

They will always wind back
To their core
To the nothingness
Of a hollow
End.

I live in another world in my dreams
Conscious, nautical, dreams
A window to a similar dimension
A gate to another universe
And
I am always almost fully
Awake

The dreams
The events
Though cryptic
Though jumbled
Somehow fully connect to one another

And
I never drift into this world
I merely exist within it
No beginning
No end
Always just a fleeting moment
Caught off guard in motion

There is
Only the sweet drowsiness
That keeps me guessing
Whether
I am stepping into a real dream
Or
Waking up from a false reality

Either way
I exist within two worlds
I dream within two worlds
I am aware within two worlds

And

Ever since I became aware of this
I think they
-Those in my dreams-
Did too

I think they
Have become
Sentient
