I look at the sun
And ask for his light
He stares on, silent
And then my eyes hurt
And then I look away
And I still don't know
What I am to do

The rain falls on me
She asks who I am
And why I lie here
But I cannot say
And I cannot move
So she can do naught
But drench me anew
My victories are none
In this looking glass of mine
Only these faults remain
To drown me in their endless eyes

After your spirit's flown, I'm on my knees
A cage of bones hides your still heartbeat
And by an empty throne, for centuries
I'll be dancing alone, to our memories
Ekaterina Vorona Sep 2018
We are all lonely beings
Lonely souls, a lonely mind
Eternally seeking and searching
For things we can never find

A memory of smiles and laughter
Washed away by the flood of sorrow
And the sense of immortal solitude
There was never a cheery tomorrow

We're all going to fade away
There'll be no one left to mourn us
Our bodies, our lives, our legacies
Will disappear into wind and dust

Yet we still bother to create
To sing, paint, dance and twirl
To turn our cobwebs into gold
All in hopes of a better world
Ekaterina Vorona Sep 2018
Sunsets are breathtaking
They paint the sky
With pretty flames
Its a beautiful sight

But behind you,
Is the world's shadow
Dark, dull, a sooty blue
The part that goes unnoticed
Ekaterina Vorona Aug 2018
Why do we seek the truth?
It hurts more than its heals
Lies are soothing, beautiful
The false world is brighter than the real

Darkness blinds, but so does light
Why don't we fear the sun?
Life is pain, death is peace
No one sees the lonely ones

Better to live in false comfort
Than be tortured by reality
"It'll go away if we ignore it
And go back home happily"

Pain breaks through like the dawn
Our world is fill with sorrow
Suffering, and hopelessness
Each day is the same as the tomorrow

Like ice, my feelings are numb
Deadened to all of life
Like ice, my heart is frozen
Frozen by anger and strife

Like ice, my soul shatters
I didn't need it anyway
Like ice, my thoughts cut and hurt
I bleed out silently every day
