When Sarcasm Is The Truth

You're shaken up
From the stress at work today.
You're in pieces,
about being able to pay your rent tomorrow.
You can't sleep,
Because you're thinking of the responsibilities
waiting on you tomorrow and the next days of your life.

Meanwhile, death could be knocking at your door.

Any hour. Any minute.

Any second.

But it doesn't matter.
Because there are more important things to do.

The Breathing Space

I awaited to take off in the rocket I built,
The moment I hit the release button
It broke down.

Dreams of ascending to the sky
I will find a way to fly.

Out of red moon poisoned light,
The only security is dark, bitter night.

Where people talk in sleep,
Their voices escape to stars.

Shallow becoming deep,
The only movement from destructive cars.

All repressive desires release in subconscious haze,
Everything expires in rotted extended days.

And patience has lost it's value, all that is left is rage.
Anger brought to brew, dagger to rib cage.

And all the black has taken my vision.
And all the songs have caused indecision.

Each and every rocket to sit in a solid place,
Only waiting for the launch, to reach into outer space.

In Love With Fog

We stood at the coast for the absence of time,
Fog seeping through our senseless bones.

The sun had left the sky hours ago.
How long until nights past?

Without a clock to tell the time we gather on damp ground,
The remains of wave crashing continue to exist on docked wood.

And that is all I hear under a blanket of clouded smoke.
And all I feel is the emptiness in this retire.

That - and well, your presence so distant,
It's almost as if you've transformed into the fog hanging in the air.

I can't feel you there.
My gaze is lost as I sink within despair.

Astonishment glaring at your secret ability.
And I'll pretend i'm unaware that it is you.

But then I promised you I wouldn't say a word to a soul.
As long as you turn me into you, too.

Upside Down

When the sky is overcast,
It whispers to the world.

Soul inflicted pain, must mask the sunlight.

But in the wake of consciousness
Notice, I am the only one peering through the clouds.
Trying to find some starlight.

The moon to point out every night.

And you dont even do a double take at what is above.

I want to belong up there.

Burning

Out of reach,

you shine so bright.

Like a star blinks

against the night.

And I want to land among you're horizon

But I dont know if I am seen.

I want to hold you're heart,

and explore you're weary soul.

If I were to give you the sun

it would never burn out, never die.

I try to give you signs,

Without you're notice, I dont know if Ill survive.

I want to escape this shell I'm submerged in 

Can you give me one last time?

Ill lend you all of the soul I have left of love

Because you light me up, light this life.

Fake Blue

In the wake of the night.
No matter.
My mind is just tangled in you.
Lost in my imagination
This cold winter fakes blue.

Everything we've just created
I want it to be true.
Everything we had erased
Has made me someone new.

And I fall for you.
Yeah, I need you too.
Fall for you.
What do you do.

I look up to the sky,
Wondering for reasons why.
Is there answers, can we try?
I dont want to say goodbye.

You have dreams, I have them too.
We dont have to let them loose.
We can hide away in bed sheets,
Listening to each others heartbeats.

In the wake of the night.

No matter.

My mind is just tangled in you.

Lost in my imagination

This cold winter fakes blue.

And we fake blue.

Nights in Mystic Reverie

The waves have gotten far now.
Have they forgotten the shore?
I spent my nights submerged in lake
My heart not wanting more.

A time to feel the breeze
and let it take my thoughts from me.
A time to look up, experiencing
The astronomy that is holding me.

It was a kiss that was stolen,
A beat that ran away.

The waves have gotten far now.
Please don't get too carried away.

The Saving Stars

Don't get lost,
Don't turn around.

The stars are here
to save you now.

Hold on to the light they shine,
I can see what's left in your eyes.

And I know you're going somewhere,
So don't let the dark take you away.

The night will kiss you with sweet dreams,
Letting you know that everything will be okay.
