in the middle of my dream, my ghost haunts me I hear my shadow scream, with an aching echo- let me sleep! let me rewrite that script of my role in that play i am so tired of my fights undone in the middle of the dark, the moon shines pale! and the sea ripples its touch but the hollow face of my past keeps on chasing all that was, no smile remains i am audiance and actor. in the middle of the pain, the words stand still! black ink - still wet. those dreams as dominoes touched by my breath to fall. can‘t you just remain? my friend and companion in the middle of the road I am alone- no warmth, no shelter the hero falls the jester laghs the last act begins all wait for the end but the curtains don’t fall

The Road
in the middle of my dream, my ghost haunts me I hear my shadow scream, with an aching echo- let me sleep! let me rewrite that script of my role in that play i am so tired of my fights undone in the middle of the dark, the moon shines pale! and the sea ripples its touch but the hollow face of my past keeps on chasing all that was, no smile remains i am audiance and actor. in the middle of the pain, the words stand still! black ink - still wet. those dreams as dominoes touched by my breath to fall. can‘t you just remain? my friend and companion in the middle of the road I am alone- no warmth, no shelter the hero falls the jester laghs the last act begins all wait for the end but the curtains don’t fall
