Ciel Noir Apr 2019
Some paths are made by force
Suddenly
Carved into the ground
Branded on the world

Some paths are made softly
One day at a time
A memory of ten thousand footsteps following
The path of least resistance
Ciel Noir Apr 2019
What if you felt no more shame
Imagine that

What if you just loved yourself
The way you are
Imagine that

What if you forgave yourself
Imagine that

I hope you are kind enough
To let yourself
Imagine that

Our minds are always full of peace

In the same way that

The sky is always full of stars
Ciel Noir Apr 2019
I found a monster in the dark
Deep in my mind, my strangest part
I banished it, it would not go
It sank its teeth into my soul

And then we fought night after night
Until I had no strength to fight
Then for a while it took the reins
All I knew was pleasure and pain

But one bright day we saw the light
Through our two eyes, monster and I
We joined together, strong, allied
No more battles, we both decide

To this day we remain entwined
And now the monster's wings are mine
Now we are one, monster and me
Now I am whole
Now I am free

If you want to understand
If you want to know
Read the truth
Between the words
The shadow of my soul

Words are windows
Words are walls
Some words are trapdoors
Come into my labyrinth
Stay forevermore

die Wolke
flüstert über die Flüsse
kennt keine Grenze
Ciel Noir Mar 2019
A word gains new meaning
Every time it is shared
Until it becomes
A poem unto itself
