Beside

It is dark blue

But pitch black down here

I can see you

I can feel you

But I miss you

The night is cold

But you are not

For you always have been

Radiant. 

I see silver moonlight 

In your eyes

You are now just glass

Waiting for someone 

To push you over

So you can break apart. 

And once again I join you

And join you

To see what it’s like

To be so close to a certain end

Knowing this isn’t it

For the one you trust 

Is right beside 

But are you?

Steps

I walked the desert today

No asphalt, no trails

Just hot unforgiving terrain

You cannot lay slow steps

If you do

It will trap you

My skin is burning 

My legs are giving up 

Still I test myself once again

I’ll cross someday 

This place which ate men

There was although 

A muddy patch

Quicksand 

I took a step of relief 

Cool cool mud

But I cannot stay

I’m sinking 

I must move

I seek comfort in people 

In the same way

It is a desert indeed

I’ve found quicksand 

Dilemma 

Stay or move?

I’ve given up control

I’m sinking. 

Unfinished

Little do you know 

About what echoes in the seas,

The show of supersonic screams,

About what they perform, about what they dream. 

 Little do you know 

About what rots on the surface,

The little beings that consume his remains,

His bony hand up high, his head in the ground,

Holding a faded family photograph,

This corpse, their stage, 

Come all fishes and surround.
