i will drink you, black poison,

till you take me from me,

when my soul is not free.

and they won't know what it means.

sleepwalk in their dreams,

while im here, I'll still lean,

like a soul with no leash,

but they wont know what it means.

like a storm in reverse,

you're the best that I heard.

not the thunder and flash,

but the sound of your love,

like a tin-roof crash.

I'd trade my life for it to last,

so many times until it passed.

and it should pass.

but it should pass.

will it pass?

i flew into your life,

a painful soul on fire,

swallowing steam for your smile.

relief that only i desired.

i would have died in your eyes.

if i knew what to do with your life.

but im alright

though my future isnt bright.


I love you.

whatever you want,

so long as you spare me.

all the pain history taught me.

like a pilot without eyes,

i'll fly right by your side,

if you give me a room,

where i can lose myself at night.

my soul on a screen,

that no one will see.

all eyes towards the restless,

the fake apathy fiend.

let me say what they cant,

all the things they dont mean:

there is a place in such loneliness,

when your loss is your life.

trade your feelings for your wife.

feel the ground for some sky.

when a door is your weapon

with a life without friends.

with a life without warmth.

in a field of corn.

every lie that was sworn.

just to hide behind doors.
charles Mar 2021
i won't plunge headfirst,

at the first sign of relief.

i won't love cause i'm lonely,

but i will when I'm sober.

i won't stare through your eyes,

out of fear from their light.

i wont linger in darkness,

when my soul isnt right.
