Welcome to my dream
where the walls are seeping various shades
of blue and green.
It's just the sky leaking over the sea.
Don't mind me.
Just rest your head
in the softest of arms
with a low hum in your ear.
Under this low light everything's so beautiful
(it's an organized madness)
like tetras in a glass jar.
And it's never very far.
In fact, always near.
It's Heaven and Hell rolled up into one.
Where screams are scarcely louder than a whisper.
Life outside is just a mar.
And we will never die. by dont-be-a-robot, literature
Literature
And we will never die.
we scream the words we don't understand
(like a mantra)
but somehow we feel it in our bones
and the pit of our stomachs like the beat under blue light
(displace the pain; like words on a page)
if nothing else to believe in,
we have this.
clocks are ticking
days are dripping
slowly away
we're wasting away.
but still we are sitting
as life keeps on slipping
further away
how long does it take?
our souls are rotting
and we are nodding
at the words we are fed
and the doubts in our head
are screaming, writhing,
"they are lying!"
but still we are dying
wasting away..
Hot tears.
Trickling down my cheeks.
With a new evening comes a new wave of them.
For no reason.
For every reason.
This feeling, once a stranger,
has become a fixture
a familiarity
Maybe even a comfort zone
to which I keep coming back
the way one would seek a warm embrace.
Or am I running into the arms of my enemy
who waits hungrily in my personal corner of Hell,
to eat away at me slowly and secretly.
and to deliver
my sweet downfall.
