  • Let Them Fall

    Let Them Fall

    Let them be who they pretend to be,
    and let them fall.

    Leave them to their misery,
    their hollow claims and borrowed skin.

    Negativity, truth, karma
    will swallow them whole.
    They are their own demon,
    their own slow demise.

    True colours fracture through the mask,
    the costume stained beyond repair.
    They hate the mirror of their own heart,
    so they hide inside a stranger’s face.

  • Untitled post 783

    I’ve vanished in the silence.
    Buried everything in boxes, in the attic of my mind.

    Creaking thoughts
    Always trying to escape.

    My heart,
    A garden of lost things
    And empty spaces.

  • Modern Savages

    Humanity still lives in the dark ages.

    We think we have evolved,

    But indeed we are going backwards.

    A mix of primitive animals

    And modern savages alike.

    Already run by machines.

  • Break Free, Break Form

    Break Free, Break Form

    Break Free.
    Break Form.

    Do not conform,
    To the unstable society,
    Full of lies and fake belief.

    Do not become a robot,
    A part of the 21st century working machine.

  • Bring Me Escape

    Bring Me Escape

    Hold me tight,
    Bring me escape.
    The shadows of the world fall too heavy upon my face.
    I feel so out of it,
    Like I don’t belong,
    At all in this place.

  • Shattered Heart

    Shattered Heart

    Watch me make the world think I’m ok.
    Like I have danced all the pain away.

    Disguise,
    The storm inside.
    That rages on.
    Barreling waves crashing,
    Over and over again.
    Drowning.
    My heart heavy,
    And soul quiet.
    Crushed.

    But nobody would know,
    Nobody would buy it.
    From the smile I put on,
    A front to keep moving through,
    My haunting thoughts.
    To find what is still true.

    Watch me, I’ve mastered the art.
    Of looking like I’m not falling apart.
    But inside,
    I really have a shattered heart.
