£~`•Fake Reality÷×€
tisk, tisk, tisk…
maybe I’m just crazy
wasting my time in a cyber world
learning to care for imaginary frenemies
giving yet not given in a fAkE rEaLiTy!!
people who don’t know me
feel the need to judge me
stand so tall against me behind a screen
when did I become the sane one?
turning the other cheek to an army of avatars
anger, pain, sadness, greed…
are real even in fake reality
mortal to a God
seeking to unite the world ...

Instability
there’s a fire slowly dying
next to a heart that pumps its last pint
deep in the depths of darkness
a child cries
seeking meaning and understanding
from a cold dull knife
when all the world is lost
trapped up in its own instability
I find myself held up by angel wings
from ashes to ashes
to star dust to star dust
a succubus moves to hypnotize
drunken good ol boys trying to unwind
taste of flesh is what’s on the menu
glutton for sex
but nothing meaningful
love is her kryptonite ...

Simply Listen
nothing will slow my rage
the heart that beats in me
craves to feed on excitement
sinful activities are poisoning
but god damn they’re addictive
underneath the starlight
I think about everything falling down
and that’s just the dark side of humanity
the part people don’t want to talk about
I try to be cheerful
but some things pain me
everyone has an opinion
on what I do and who I'm with
why the fuck does it matter?
let my words be your peace
but everyone wants to sink in deeper
shit like that makes me want to give in...

Light Hearted
you say you don’t know
what it is I want from you
well let me spell it out
I want you to f-e-e-l
I just want you to be r-e-a-l
and not some shell of a person
there was a time
we were so close
but now I see the differences
when you said yes
I said no
when things got tough
you ran for the hills
well, go ahead
run, run, run to those hills
I don’t think you’ll ever get there
it makes me wonder
about all the times
you tried to belittle me
tried to take the crown
right off my head
claiming to be...

Meant To Be
resting in bed with my lover
she snuggles up against me
speaking with a small voice
“don’t ever leave me”
so I say
“I thought I told you before
now listen close
you are the love of my life
my only reason for being
the boat that sails me to safety
when I’m lost at sea”
as the night continues on
she places her head
in the pit of my chest
asking me through a yawn
“what of those who try to harm?”
so I reply
“I thought I told you before
now...

Trials
when I was young
I walked home from school in pain
my neck nearly broke from a gang of bullies
once home my parents told me
not to hold grudges, I must learn forgiveness
that night I looked into the mirror
with tears rolling down my face
told myself this
"I never want to be so passive
If I’m going to make it in this life
I need to learn to fight back"
when I was a teenager
I fell for an older woman
she cheated on her husband with me
they had a child together
foolishly I thought we would run away ...

Remembrance
I miss the feel
of goose bumps
placed on your skin
by my touch
I’m begging, please
bring those lips
with passion
once more
my soul it yearns
for wrapped arms
unforgettable warmth
so comforting
refill the emptiness
fuel it with desire
sensual embrace
as only you could
our bond
was never broke
always with me
beneath the pain
I’m on my knees
a lonely man’s plea
bring it back
remembrance
of goose bumps
placed on your skin
by my touch
I’m begging, please
bring those lips
with passion
once more
my soul it yearns
for wrapped arms
unforgettable warmth
so comforting
refill the emptiness
fuel it with desire
sensual embrace
as only you could
our bond
was never broke
always with me
beneath the pain
I’m on my knees
a lonely man’s plea
bring it back

My Strength
take a good look at beauty~
never will weaken
at the world’s feet
with every kiss
another piece
of energy
it gives me strength
to hold the weight
and throw it back
tenfold
don’t need anyone
or anything
you raise me up
when they bring me down
another touch
of sweet heaven
then suddenly
I forget
all of those
heartless harlots
and the pain they gave
with all your rights
I’m never wrong
no, never wrong
beginning
ending
my in-between
the book is written
just need...
