Love is an illusion,
Peace is fickle,
What is real?

I dont know what to do,
I am helpless.
I'm spinning out of control.

I wonder where you are,
Stifled in this cold silence
As my life drains.

The cold biting at my legs,
I deep in thought.
Wondering and grasping at straws.

Frustration gnawing at my insides,
I wonder when it will end,
I am caged, my freedom outside.

To Find Peace

anger eats away the soul,
Until nothing is left.
Mankind remains,
A husk of itself.
Its true glory,
Never reached.
Only in death,
It will find peace.

Magic

Head pounding,
Heart beating,
Blood boiling,
Breath rushing.
I feel it in my veins,
The world goes silent.
Its slowing down,
And everything is crystal clear.
I know now,
And i wont fight it.
This is my destiny,
This is me.

Life?

Life manifests in things,
That often go unnoticed.
Her humped back,
Akin to a camel,
Roams the desert,
In search of salvation.
The only real thing,
Is the phoenix of hope,
Which rises from the ashes,
Again and again and again.

When?

I am sick of this world,
Of this pointless existence.
We walk through life
As if it has any significance.
We are born, and then we die.
Like a movie, life has,
A beginning, a middle and an end.
And I am hoping,
That the end comes sooner,
Rather than later.

Me.

I am not perfect.
I am not who you want me to be.

I have my faults,
I'm at peace with them.

You ask the impossible,
You ask me to change.

Its not easy,
But I wont give up on me.

I am who I am,
Even if I dont know who that is yet.

I wont change, I will remain,
And you wont stand, in my way.
