an obscure safe heaven

killing all sense of time
scrolling my life away...
reminiscent idea of friendship
conversations to never return
wasted and deceased on a dime
walking flesh bag on automatic
lost all hope and drive
all that's left is bruises and bills
a cynical savory of all we were
the demanding disregard i'm gifted with
wishing for wishes, wishes of balance
with the muzzle flash the news are given
theories become facts
with a single thump, the sound is clear
it has fallen and now swims in itself
a crimson sea of the self inflicted solitude
no one left to talk to?
well, nothing left to say then...

The Witness

By -
When all is lost, how does one find the way? When it all comes crashing down, how does one pick up after? What was left after the romans fell? Now the witness to the death of an empire, truths' unspeakable persona. As if a fallacy, yet here it is, as red as fresh blood, the truth that was never meant to be. It has reached undeniable status. Once a beautiful gazelle, now roadkill. The dead can't be brought back to life, no matter how much we try, fight or deny... The conclusion, reminiscent of the trapped body inside the filling water tank. It has reached its peak and there is no more space left for air... The soot leaves a mark. From the burning of the castles to the ashes of the fallen. It fills the lungs of the breathless and suffocates the remains of the light that once shone bright. The level of betrayal is worst than anything before. The cowards ran for their lives after setting the world ablaze. You, The Witness, will sit and let it burn. There is nothing left to fight fo...

Fighting Acceptance

By -
The sailor avoids the waters... he knows what lures beneath the deep blue, and fear takes over. The harrowing idea that one fish can destroy it all in mere seconds. He dreads the idea of letting go of land, but his place is in the sea. The hunter avoids the forest... he knows what crawls in the dark woods, and fear takes over. The narrow path between the trees won't hide the beast for longer. He dreads the idea of leaving the cabin, but his place is in the forest. The performer avoids the stage... he knows what fanatics are capable of in the arenas, and fear takes over. The lonesome halls will bring the murderers to light. He dreads the idea of leaving this backstage, but his place is on stage. The writer avoids all pen and paper... he knows what hides behind the words and thoughts, and fear takes over. The last attempt to recover life was unsuccessful and the ink became pray to anger and hate. He dreads the idea of leaving his mind, but his place is the paper. The lover avoids the...

In the absence of others

By -
Tell me who you're with, I'll tell you who you are. A cliché in everyone's mind. Has anyone ever considered the implications? Doubtful, yet they can not be denied. Who are you with? Is that really who you are? Look around, take a gulp, start a war. Think about the implications And let's talk about them in a bar. What if there's no one with you? Who or What are you then? Become the consequence of one to the end. These are dangerous implications. There, laid to be the carcass of a man. Tell me you're alone, I'll tell you why you are. Has anyone survived that? That would leave no implications. Just the tone of the green flat one. You are the captain of your boat. They are the dead left behind. Void are the waters around and ahead. Create the required implications. Remorse and regret are for the dead. In the absence of others find your ground and face forward. Motivation you once held is now all gone. You are all the implications. Walk your path, never stop, and...
