Dark corners of blood-stained faces

unknown tongues spoken by Devil

lunacy of world snatching nightmares

blackened light of sustenance.

Taste of arsenic tells no tales

immobilized by clenched eyes

waves crashing in dark onyx

pit of endless broken dreams

sedated boulders grope

without seeing sutures

of dark reflection of madness in

nightmares obsessed by gloom.

Sweet dreams smother nightmares

floating oblivion melts sunshine

forming golden drops on my skin

Clear sky opens its curtains

glimpse of pink hazed light

artistry sails life shores

reflecting healing in rapidly

flowing rivers of hope.

My soul drinks gulps

of joyful tears at sunrise

lungs filled with warm light

breezes of dancing fantasies.

Symmetry shines salted

in summer rain, laced

by seas in painted paradise

love glows on the periphery

of countless hatched dreams.

Moon smiles on ivory splendor

reverie of Milky Way mysteries.

Pictures inside, I see in my head

Images so clear, so real yet dead

For you see, oh you see

They are all but inside of me

Some are dark, sorrowful and bloody

That if I say them out loud, people might think I’m crazy

Mostly it’s a war that’s never ending

A dispute of my mind, heart & soul, tormenting

Few times there is beauty & peaceful

Thoughts of love, flying butterflies that are graceful

Sometimes happiness that is filled with hope

And a bottle of motivation to fill my empty soul

These thoughts of mine who forever wander

In the sea of Imagination, I begin to plunder

For you see, oh you see, tis the only thing free

In this world, in here, where I fail to see
