Alone in a vast emptiness
the sand, his feelings
that face above the sky
eyes staring wishing to be blind
the sound of tears falling
drops of emotions
wasted feelings
on blood as thick as his intentions
will there be an oasis in the afterlife?
or just more shadows burning to find reasons
will he leave it to the cross?
drive a nail through every frustration
or just let the thirst run its course?
too many questions
for a mind thirsty for answers
too much time
for a mind that wanders-
alone, with so many eyes watching.

he lost her somewhere on his notes
spilled feelings on red ink
heart crumpled beneath her toes
her love on his skin
she wrote it with her delicate hands
and a mischievous grin
and it says - I'm yours forever
a cursed tattoo for a slave
she added a pentagon
star shaped burn  
a mark that bleeds in eternity
eyes that haunts his sanity
like a million promises
filled with millions of holes
smoking in circles
burning
the way things burn when love holds no more meaning

a face lingers
inhaled
on every sigh
exhaled
moments ***** by time
winged and burned
about to crash in his skull
a huge mushroom
out to pierce his eye
blind
but he can still smell everything
minute longings
huge cravings
floating endlessly
through the deadly air
silhouettes
of life
death
everything that makes sense
but he just can't help
but get lost in between
molecules

the birds are waving
goodbyes to the careless wound
and I hope I'm a feather
floating aimlessly at this blue world

the waves are waiting
for a ride that would define time
and I wish I'm in that part of the globe
paddling carelessly on a makeshift wood

but what am I but another escapist
out to heal the unknown
hoping that soon I'd find answers
to the questions I so long hold

what am I but another broken heart
out to patch my wounds
hoping to clear my thoughts
to the worries that scratches my soul

all I know is that I'm a wasted heart
waiting for the world to swallow me whole
a drifter
lost with every misused word

time to escape this world...

we all have a cavity
our hearts, our souls
dipped in a sweet longing
for lust, for love
happiness made of bees wax
the sting, forever etched
on our skins, in every memory
awake and asleep with the pain
stings as cruel as the memories we hold dear
we're all dead, not yet
we can escape, but reality has a rope on our neck
a joke we're alive as we gasp for breath
the world defined by the acute pain
every other day we have to deal
with all our hopes we try
must we continuously bleed til we get rid of the pain?
and yes, we live, barely alive in a hollow world
buried beneath our chest
we must always try to live-
without regrets

it's her smile, her smell, and the way she draw a line
her knife, his wrist, and the mark on her palms
the smooth curves that would heal sores
a touch that cures
his world tangled in her curls
the music that moves him
the way he's moved with her style
dumb desires
and the boy is caught in a whirlwind
never to return to his old life
arrows stuck on his heart
he never felt so alive
the entirety of his life
about to be consumed-
dumb desires

she came into my life like a mushroom
on a rainy day
with the lightning as her guide
she crashed into my life
I picked her
ate her
and now I'm on a trance
shouldn't have followed the rabbit with the fancy hat
shouldn't have jumped through the hole
now I'm ten feet tall
but my heart remained small- the size of a fist
tough, but unable to grasp the whole new world
eat the apple and let's rid ourselves from this world, she said
to a world unknown, a place untold
we don't have to wear clothes
just you and me, and whatever worries behold
play with the snakes and eat apples all day long
we would live like the queens and lions of the old
such dreams, such hopes
we both smiled with the thought
but the world awaits-
cold as the storm that would soon swallow as whole.
