The Race

We always run
On the chain of desire
As the last person
At the end of the line
It's easy to give up
Make your run stop
No one will notice
Everyone's ahead
But we somehow stay
Though it's the hardest
To stay behind
And keep what we have
But we somehow hope
That what we're running
Is worth aiming for

I am not
Strong enough
To bear the pain
That's brought upon
By loving you
Though I am
Strong enough
Knowing you are
With someone
Better

A Dream in the Night

Your hand on my hand
Got those eyes locked on mine
Just out skin against the warmth
Of how we held each other tight

I let the joy to sink in
Closed my eyes and breathed deep
Opened 'em again and realized
It was just my dream last night

Bemused's Diary

I wrote "You"
But not your name
It could be you
Or someone the same
I can't tell
It's less specific
I bleed out some words
And I ended up with "You"
I don't know how
But it's somehow true
Whatever I bleed out
In black or blue
I always find myself tangled
In the person I call "You"

The Girl Who Cried Shooting Stars

As she lies awake
Against her soft sheets
Her eyes were withdrawing
The stars of her heartache
Each one carries
What her heart wants to leave
Warm as they fell
But ceases to be
One after another
Crashing against her pillow
Filling a pool of sorrow
And dries up in the gloomy wind
Her eyes kept burning
In her thoughts, she's drowned
Realizing the stars were up
Showing how we're living
In the depths of the dark

Art of Pain

I created you in my mind
Brought you out from my thoughts
Have you drawn finely and precisely
In pencil and painting colours
I loved it, I loved you
You're what it was like
Beauty out of pain
An image served by hand
And yes I am right
You're what it was like
A piece I must call "was"
A part of beauty from pain
And yes I was wrong
I created you in my mind
And let it fill my heart
With all those sketches
And painting colours

I am so imperfect
That I destruct myself
In loving you this much
While you destruct yourself
In loving her so bad
