A problem within a problem.
A time within a time.
I hesitate,
miss my escape;
guess I’m on board
for one more ride.
I asked for this,
I can’t deny it.
Caught up in the arms
of desire and regret.
Losing never meant destruction,
it just meant starting
all over again.
Met a friend
who was my shadow,
turns out we share everything.
We hide together in darkness,
I show him how to sin.
Light in the eye offending,
laughing loud and crooked grin;
I am far from isolation,
prison is only a skin.
I asked you to come
to my place,
to bring me
a little more;
you completely
forgot me,
guess I’m not here
anymore.
Stuck my neck out
one last time,
I found you holding your noose;
what are friends for,
if not the most intimate betrayals?
I don’t know
any other kind of love.
I’ve always existed
slightly going off the rails.
I guess it is
what it is.
Fuck you,
if you think any different.
I’ll just sit here,
with my shadow
and we’ll both fade away
in the common place,
every day,
boring masquerade.
Truth is a blade.
Come where it’s wild.
Sharpen your tongue.
Your face makes me smile.
Here we go again…
