I don't write poems for some likes
Maybe I write poems to conquer the love of my life
I don't write poems that sound nice
They’re just some basic rhymes on feelings that run so wild

I don't write poems when I feel all right
I write them when I'm missing someone by my side
I don't write poems for my pride
I write poems ‘cause it's more a necessity
Than a way to fill some leisure time

I don't write poems to get famous
I write them because they tell my truth not because they're fabulous
I don't write poems to be popular
I just wanna be recognized by one, my one and only muse, my guiding star

I don't write poems to get rich
I write poems because I'm sick
I don't write poems for the men at the top of the pyramid
I write them for the sensitive ones, the crazy ones, the ones banished from society

I don't write poems to change the world
It's hard enough for me to change myself
I don't write poems to bring peace to this globe
I write them to find peace of mind

I write poems because just for a moment in time
I’d forget this empty place where I have to hide
I torture my mind with rhymes, easy ones, not too hard to find
Simple words I try to combine
Because it’s the only way to acquire meaning for a man who finds it hard to combine
The certainties of his heart with all the doubts in his mind

I wish I could make you as happy as XTC
But my company is a downer called ****
I wish I could procure you the love drug and you would get addicted to me
But I'm the worst trip around here, I only grant you paranoia and tears

I wish I could make you as energetic as speed
But my mind, my thoughts and my music just put you to sleep
I'm a natural drug without any THC
Not even the taste is good, and it just smells very smelly

I wish I could give you as much confidence as *******
But the only effect I could give you is infinite pain
You wouldn't feel like a queen with me, I would turn you into a slave
A slave full of malediction, crashing and smacking down your face

I wish I could give you an ****** as warm as ******
But I always inject you with my misery and spleen
I give you an overdose of sadness and melancholy
I cannot even offer you a moment of escapism out of your reality

I wish I could make you see colours as colourful as under the influence of LSD
But I only paint your mood into black even the night is brighter than my company
I turn the brightest star into a dead parasite
I turn every particle of light into a colourless and unliveable galaxy

If I would be a drug I would be a depressive
The one you take because you feel too happy
The one that holds you down even lower than gravity
You would take me because the deeper you could go with me
The higher you could fly again when you would leave me
