Why not death take me soon
To a heaven or hell
Believe being happy there
Rather than being in this world
In need of peace of mind
In a space of different world
Fed up of family and friends
Utilising and criticising
Eyes are dry and no more tears to fill
Aching mouth with a faking smile
No more energy to travel so long
With these bags of burden so strong
Enough is enough of all these wounds
Wish to live without scars
No swelling,bleeding and chopping off
Why not death take me soon ?
Someone shared their bitter experience !

He picks them up at random
Takes them out
Becomes engrossed in one
Then the next

Finished with them
He dumps them back
Where he found them
A little worse for wear

*A spider in a vessel of silver stones
Naively fighting for what he knew is right
Philosophies against philosophies
Happiness over comfort
Both are true in different points of view
But the majority in his community
Have agreed to one view:
"**** the fire that burns the known culture!"
-The silly spider that seizes an invincible flame-
None of them understand he’s only against himself
Sinking in his delusions until awakens by the truth
To never ever sell his dreams for a velvet thing
Or he’ll be a cold eight-legged silver stone
That lies dead before his known death,
He sees how hard it is to be the only
Opposing the rules of the dynasty
But it is the fire in his dreams
That hunts for genuine bliss
Amidst the frozen world
Of the lifeless spiders,
Is the reason why he’s burning,
To keep alive until the end of his search.

You do not piece back together
shattered glass,
you sweep.

I don't
claim
to be
a superman
but I can
tell you
this,
my
kryptonite
is alcohol.

Just pour
me one
straight up
and watch my fall.

When
I die
I want
my spirit
to fly,
lock in on
my prey
from far,
far away.

Only rattling
bones
I can assume,

will be rattling
around
in my tomb.

Perhaps
it is better
to scatter my
ashes to the wind.

Because
really all
I will do
is just carry
my light in
to another room.

That's it,
I'll just
carry my light
in to another room.

night, me so jealous
i weep.

I sang the song of a broken heart
It deafened the darkened sky
And though it pulled my soul apart
Nobody could hear my cry
