I speak to thee death
You know how much time is left
I fear her eyes get dark
And loveless the days
Go by leaving no traces on her face

I speak to thee life
Walking the time always ready to fight
I pray her lips remember my name
And careless the days
Go by but memories head the other way

I speak to thee my love
For I see the way you leave in the morning
I know your love is gone
And helpless the days
Go by until that one night you won't return

I speak to thee God
Knowing the absurdity of your existence
I say please redeem us
While lightless the days
Go by for me and for her the future shines

This rose is bare but for thorns
Dried blood once shed on its petals
Is forever gone lost in wind
While eternity hollows the unborn
On these stony shores
Where only flowerless roses bloom
And before anything starts
Everything is done
Before storm there is another one
And afterwards the sea is full of fear
For rain is mixed with horizon
(Ships have no place to land)
Hostile world in lost part of universe
Paints the hills above in darkened shades
Of black while birds fly until they tire
And fall from the sky to some shallow place
There is you blind and naked
And there is me furthest to close
When I touch you your eyes perish
And into the darkness everything goes
While in my depths unneeded soul howls
In this world of you and me only flowerless rose grows
Jozef Vizdak Sep 2016
To cry is to feel
And to feel is to live
And to live is to let go
After all I'm only
Flash and bone
Wandering worlds
Past yours alone
After all I'm only
Wind and sand
Aimlessly roaming
Until you're gone

And to love is to die

6th floor balcony
3am
1 finishing cigarette
No hope
Jump you fool
Jump until there's time
Jump until there's enough bravery left
Dignifying family future
Unspoken love's past
Jump until it's over
And the cigarette's finished
You leave the balcony
It's too late
Another chance wasted
Another life fearfully saved
But soul already in hell
Jozef Vizdak Sep 2016
For long I was not myself
My true form being only inside
Outside a scarecrow of pain
Smiling upon the world
Like endless vanity
Thundering in calm
Then (without even knowing)
You reached into me
(Into the corners of my
Forgotten soul
Into the heavy heart already
Bled to death)
And touched gently the roots
Of my very existence
Which started resonating inside
Like a bell chiming the end
Of pain
And my inside and outside
Became one

Now when I see you again
I will smile for you
But you won't know
I am awakened
A storm sprung to life
I smile because of you
But you don't know

She was but a spring
Angrily knocking on winters
Door covered with ice cracks
And once torn and smashed apart
She gave her blooded hands
To dry and sooth those moonlight palms
To kiss the fingers upon madness
To take her by the hand and show her the world
Cold and without meaning unprepared
Waiting for her eyes to show the sun
And smallest leaves and little flowers
Or to hear an unheard morning song
While time floats by the empty streets

A spring she was
For she knew not how to
But still melted people's hearts
To plant the seed of life that was
So impatiently waiting in the snow
To know all things that were to know
And once planted
Once melted
She showed a beautiful world of her own

Night and day
Sun runs moon limps
Sounds echo through
This supposed wasteland
Me being the motionless point
Of all the universe
Observer of known
Not understanding a thing
Absurdly absurd absurdity
Why this glass grabs that hand
What does unlock the rage
That makes us so violent
And love o love shinning everywhere
And nowhere is the love
Souls having been starved to madness
Jump hastily into her arms
Thinking of having found happiness
In a waterless pool
They hold their breath until they suffocate

Open your eyes to night and day
To sun that runs and moon that limps
To miles travelled and those yet to travel
Open your eyes to motion
To become motionless
And then dance the dance of absurdity
Become nothing and all
Dance like never before
On flames dance with bare feet
Always and never wounded
Heal your soul
Destroy it with hammerhead
Be one and none
Be for a second and then be gone
