Desire
Desire to
desire less -
like fire,
which burns my flesh
and soul.

*** We Clearly See
We clearly see the illusion of material things.
We simply choose to ignore it,
hoping for getting approval from above.
It doesn't matter how high we think of ourselves,
how high we hold our heads.
At the end of the day,
we are equally invisible to the night.

More Less
More you want,
less you get.
More you try to remember,
more you forget.
More you try to be happy,
more sad you feel.
Less time you have left,
more time you ****.
The wiser you are,
the less you know.
The more you desire,
the less you own.

*** Boxes
They thought it was easy:
they tick the boxes
and we dissapear.
But it didn't work like this.
It never does.
They should have known it by now.
The problem is,
we aren't just boxes to tick.
If you **** your nightmares,
you will forfeit sweet dreams.
They hate everything what is different,
but on the surface
they are nice people,
who wouldn't hurt a fly.
Haven't we all got two personalities,
good and bad?
Heaven and Hell in one?
At time it makes us dizzy.
Some of us suddenly switch
way too easy.

*** Absent
Cold is the morning
and I don't feel like going back to this awful place
today.
Will anyone notice my absence?
Or maybe I am overthinking again.
Life is a waiting.
Poor kids, they built Heaven and Hell.
Now they are running away
to the safety.
