Ciel Noir Nov 2021
I might as well
chase the Sun
on and on and
west and west

until
the new day
finds me running

far away
from where I left

scorched earth
battle scarred
annihilation
holy war

I thought nothing could grow here
anymore

but I was wrong
Ciel Noir Nov 2021
I look at my past
and I look away
that wasn't me
that's what I say

that wasn't me
but if that's so
then tomorrow
who will I be?

it is almost
as if to say
that I only exist
today

I want to stay
I want to be
that's why I must say
that was me

I see what love does
it scares me

I tried to find a way around love

but that hurt more
than the other
kind of
pain

I have to love
it is part of my brain

maybe I can find a way

around the fear

they are
in our sky

our sun
in their signs
our world

in their eyes
we are
in their sky

Love and hate and joy and sadness
Fill our whole mind like an ocean
How could we express this madness
To someone with no emotions?

Cold machines with hearts of steel
Could never calculate this feeling
And the Watchers cannot feel
The inner world we are revealing

God in his ivory tower
May see all within our sphere
But to live without that power
Is to understand our fear

Caged in our own carnival
Of red and rage and flesh and lust
How could they ever really know
What it's like to be one of us?
