Scream love, Scream death.


Scream love, Scream death.



Hush, human child!
No one knows your secret.
No one cares who you are.
Don’t try to hide what you hold;
I see the glass shard in your hand
And the paint it made upon your skin.
The screaming redness - your eyes…
All flowers, chaos and pain
Flourishing from guilt
You never asked for.

All the bridges you burned
Never lightened but engulfed
The existence of good self…
Don’t throw yourself to the wolves
The ideas they may plant inside,
The shame they may stitch upon your ceiling
Will grant you fear forever
Drag you down
The road of depression
Decorated with statues of daemons and angels…
Consuming, hurting, deceiving you.

Hush, human child!
This pain you feel
Hidden so well
Throughout your soul’s garden
Fences of bones, benches of hurt
Nothingness is buffering in the stream
Clear boards of glass branching from
Trees of questionable breeds…
Faking your smile, hey, your sadness told
The redecoration in your mind
And the hell-like stings of reality
Making it all not worthy being here
In this mad fabric – all lines combined
Wanting to be torn apart…
All colors and skins – transparent threads
No place for us in this world’s bed…
We are a cursed dread.

Hush, my child!
Just call my name out
Go crazy, shout, shout…
It is a cruel fractured underneath
Leaking out, to reach a sinner like me
I am holding you – all alone
Heart of a child…
Storms of lights…
Cold blackness illuminating
From your eyes
My poetry of nerves…
Shape shifting tears over your flesh
To wash the worst moan.

I am just a stone,
You are the sun that feeds
Come to me, slowly, slowly…
Let us breed “Night”
Give birth to a nocturnal melody
And then die…
For love never comes young
And death takes unborn lusts…
No language to explain it – only dust.
Curse me forbidden love
All stars illuminate thin
Coloring his blooded skin
Damned if I saved him;
Damned if I did not…
Just say my name child
We shall never be afraid again
Crazy, shout, shout
And say my name;

One last time; in this life…
