the sun sets in me
the light filled sky turns dark, fills me
it's night.
i get lost in the woods that keep me safe.
everything so unique....
everything so alone!  
it becomes quiet when the thunder roars.

cloudy sunrise...
the sun to shy to show its face.
the birds too silent to sing.
the mountains sink into the stone cold earth and disappears.

it's raining

water, flow over me?
rivers, heal me?
i'm drowning in the flow of life from above.


sun, please put your arms of heat around me!
if the trees could only bloom...
if only my soul could rest...
the truth is traveling inside me,
but the messenger got lost!

lost in the woods where the sun now shines,
but drowning in the waters of life.

i saw you at the park
and thought you looked divine.
i wished that i could meet you
and make your people mine.

the darkness of your clothes
made me realize who i am
and thinking of the past
made me realize i am ******.

i tried to catch up when you didn't answer when i called.
i swam the ****** rivers, until the pills made me cold.

you refused when i tried to touch you...
you walked away when i got close...
i chased you with a knife,
and you liked the overdose!

catching you is not easy,
i have ran until i cried
but stopping isn't something,
i'll try until i die.

— The End —
