lions, beasts

he sees a cliff and a lion steps inside his dreams
there it is, with a mane blown in the winds
could someone help him see the stars in its eyes?
it's so calm, so loud, so proud, so cruel, so vile
he raises his hand to show the awe to the beast
it is wild, it is free, yet its heart is not mean
and there I am with a tattoo on myleg
he sees the mane, the wind, stars and dreams
forgets what's real, I bring him to his knees
and there I am with a lion...

and I dreamt about him last night
he was a victim

game

I caught him
when I fell in love
and he caught me
at the same time

faith, belief

when you cross a cemetery
you have to pay attention

between all those graves
between all their hands
they are touching us
but we have forgotten
and we have no faith
no more

they are kissing us
stroking our heads
sometimes don’t care
they’re invisible

so when you cross a cemetery
the ground is full of them
and the air you’re breathing
is made of love

for those who don’t believe
they have gone forever

but we know that

when we cross a cemetery
we have to look for us
one of the graves could be ours

cause  we are between the deads

fear, scream

where do bad people go when they die?
they don’t go to heaven where the angels fly
they go to a lake of fire and fry
won’t see them again unless you cry

fear
I can’t stand this day
scream
I see them and feel them
I can’t believe, I don’t want to
but they are near

in my memories
they’re waiting on the other side

my head explodes
I cover my ears
but they cry inside me
I cover my eyes
but they laugh under my eyelids

laughter
laughter
all I hear and see is laughter

there’s no you
except in my dreams tonight

august, december

I've finally figured out
we're somewhere between
between the end of the line and the middle of nowhere

here I am
in this empty space
living on my own
trying to touch the edge

I want to be good
I want to be God 

please don’t wake me
no don’t shake me
leave me where I am

I look on my fingers
lazily
I scratch my arms
time hangs
heavily
I scratch my legs
shouting your name
and there’s no escape

it started five years ago
in August, and now
do you remember September
will you stay in December

more, less

tell me
if you were to die tonight
would you be proud of yourself

of all the stars you’ve seen
of all the sunsets you’ve felt on your skin
of the music you’ve heard
and of her shoulders you’ve touched

of all those nights that ended
and of all the mornings that finally came

of your smiles
of tears you’ve left behind

or maybe

of your house
of money you’ve spent
of how much and how many
which never has and never will
matter


to me

light, gloom

Well that kind of love
is the killing kind

I am a shadow
I am a moonchild

I have no body, have I
I don’t exist, do I
I can’t stand no more, can I
I won’t survive here, will I

Who are you all
Who are all those people
passing by
am I the center
of the Universe?

I hear them
crashing
smashing
screaming
and bleeding

at night
I open my eyes
with a crash

light
enlighten me
gloom
absorb me

hey you
talk to me sometimes
I wonder

where and who are you dying with

life everlasting

been too strong for too long
been far away for far too long

I’m lying on the floor
biting my fingers
swallowing my tears
shouting and screaming

And that scary face in a corner of my room
talk to me
there’s a man in my room

the forgiveness of sins
the resurrection of the body
and the life everlasting
amen

we were born sick
but I love it
only then I am a human
only then I am clean
