Found and Lost



Another stranger makes his way,
Limping around the border lines.
Insane daybreaks…
Clouds of silence lingering above…

“Do I remember you?
He whispers into her ears.
“You never will”,
And Cassandra smiles.

Misty glasses of more water than whisky,
Entwined like snake skins…
She pushes him to the fire…
Burnt in the misty corridors of the mind…

Memories lost in the Pacific for the night…
A puff of cigarette in the air,
Calling out to her…
And she goes quiet in the nights…

And then he’s gone,
Lost in the haze of the smoke…
And then another night,
And then another cigarette in the air…

Tears of Pandora…
Burning her world inside,
Wet roses on the door…
Alone towards the end…

Stars of a future lost in the past,
Dreams of a day lost in the nights…
Silence of Cassandra lost in the screams,
Promises lost in the Never-to-be…

Long Days… Longer nights

 
Ever felt like changing your skin?
Ever felt like going to a place where there are no memories?
Ever felt like saying nothing for hours?
Ever felt like driving all night in circles?
Ever felt like staring through the stars?
Ever felt like knowing nothing about someone?
Ever felt like lying about yourself?
Ever felt like listening to the same song on loop for hours?
Ever felt like kissing for hours?
Ever felt like sleeping the whole day?
Ever felt like making love without any love?
Ever felt like walking on for miles alone?
Ever felt like killing someone?
Ever felt like being in love?
Ever felt like not thinking?
Ever felt like running naked on the streets?
Ever felt like dying alone?

Broken fragments of nightmares…
Truths of a moment lost in lines…
Staying lost between Truth and Moments…
I do… Everyday!

Lost in the abyss of yesterday…
Scratching lines off her palms…
Looking for a new tomorrow…
I do… Everyday!

Silence of a different kind…
Cassandra calling me out…
Letting the world stay lost…
I do… Everyday!

Holding Cassandra hostage six feet under…
Amidst hollow dreams and hollowed truths…
Sitting in a corner looking at this world silently…
I do… Everyday!

Prophecies smiling at a stranger…
Broken mirrors around me…
Pushing strangers between the lines…
I do… Everyday!

Searching for this moment in a ruble…
Smoke and ashes in equal parts…
Living through chaos…
I do… Everyday!

And Cassandra mocks me…
And I feel too much…
And I say too little…
I do… Everyday!
