Silhouette

I have been asleep again
For longer than usual
Because my virtual cocaine
Got me very sentimental.

All night long I waited
For a dose of you once more
But you stood there utter intoxicated
Ignoring the pains I endure.

And forever more my angry siren
Will render me defeat and regret
This love I have always sought to gain
Is something we should just forget.

A never-ending battle
A war that always was in vain
An unsung lullaby before I fell
Asleep to never awaken again...

Unspoken

Written: November 11, 2006 (07:10 PM)

There is a beautiful masterpiece
I have wanted to write about.
About YOU...
But I keep holding back
Because to unravel the beauty
And significance of it...of YOU...
Will unfold a mystery curtained for the long run.
I am scared.
I bend over and hurt my leg
To stop and stare at the beautiful sight
Which caught me verily amazed at its existence.
What is it about you that keep me chained?
What do you have I couldn't seem to resist?
The longer I have you around,
The more I am tortured by the sheer idea
Of dying if I don't see your face.
Like being intoxicated
Before the intoxication happens...
As if I have assumed pace over water
And actually think I can walk over it.
It is a scary and wonderful feeling captured in one
Making you feel like you can fly without wings.
I imagine you in my solitude
For some inspiration and zest
Into my oppressed life,
To form up a smile in the midst
Of my craze and confusion.
You whom I have not spoken about
To manage reality and fantasy all the same...
The phantom, the masked Romeo;
The being who could be;
...The love of my life!

Surreal

I see you even with my eyes closed,
Feel you at the most anesthetic state,
Right in front of me, I can’t touch you,
I am numb; I have lost my voice.

Why with you the world seems to stop?
For a moment’s gape and momentary bliss,
Like a phantom who has stolen,
The silent solitary life of me…

If I can hold you for a split second,
And seal that chance in a jar,
I can have a split second of forever,
For my heart’s long time desire.

MORNING

It was your callous words
In my oblivion and madness
That slapped the realities until I awoke
I had a glimpse of you in my dream
Or so I thought…

I heard your laughter mocking me
In utter intention to break me free
What would I be without you?
Who can better tell me I am stupid?
Without meaning otherwise
But, to let me face my fears…

I have looked at life differently
From the moment you have spoken those truths for me
Those that hurt but seemed soothing
When expressed by you

And I have looked at love rather faithfully
When you have caressed me
And comforted with the promise
Of a better time ahead
A new beginning encompassing what end…

I awoke and I saw you
I saw light and felt the pricking heat
That and I assumed

The new life borne for the fallen angel…
