Ma Saii

In the lost shadows of forgotten times,
I've discovered myself,
Fallen from grace,
Betrayed into disbelief,
Trying to remember who i had been,
I'm undone,
Incomplete,
Cursed to be a wraith,
An illusion that will fade with the first touch,
Haunted by unseen memories,
Bled into submission,
I'm who I choose to be.

I Know What It Is Like

I've been there, done that,
I know what it is like -
To think this is the easiest way out
To justify no one loves you
To pretend you won't be missed
To believe this is your final act of bravery.

I've been there, done that,
I know what it is like -
To feel the first sting of the blade,
To see the first gushes of red,
And then wait for it to be all over.

I've been there, done that,
I know what it is like -
To hear yourself cry out,
(To someone,
to anyone,
just to save you)
And have it go unheard.

I've been there, done that,
I know what it is like -
To fail;
And live to see your best friend succeed.

Mythical Imagery

The bounded time swirls,
As the mystic waves conspire their feeling,
And sacred moments of scented memories,
desire an end.

Suffered Dreams

I stare at a world unknown,
That brushes past me,
Stand at the corner,
And watch it glide away.

Of unknown answers and bewildered hopes,
I dream with sordid smiles,
Pretending I can’t be moved,
Or feel and untouching hand.

Somewhere I lost it all,
Missed the beginning and the end,
Passed the trail that led to light,
And looked for shadows in the dark.

And when the world stops moving,
I look for something of me in it,
Like at a mirror of a thousand faces,
I seize the picture therein.

Trying to convince myself its real,
Listening to the silent sighs of indifference,
I stand in the corner,
Watching it all slip away…
