Friday 17 February 2012

Quietly and in a sudden
My apparent peace has been interrupted
By a creature I’ve never seen before

It bewilders me how I turned blind
And how I could see clearly what I was doing
At the same time

A wave of excitement caught me
Too big to surf
Too big to resist

You…
Are the one I seek in the streets
The one I barely knew
And that brought me dazzlement

I pretend you mean nothing
I pretend you mean so much
What have you done?
Now I am lost

I kicked the world as if it were a ball
I didn’t care for my actions
The ones I’ve thought with so much detail
Pretending that it was a product of my wild will

Has it ever left unconsciousness?
How much have I desired and repressed it…
Now you seem just someone else with the least importance

You came to defy my values
To make me suffer in silence
Because I deny your existence
And you are just another piece of meat

I almost defied my limits
Do I have any anyway?
Now I realize we are really capable of feeding our deepest whims
We will fall because we’re caught in an animal magnetism

You…
Flawed creature, a giant in the eyes in the others…
Not on mine anymore…
I wish I could discover in your eyes
Something deeper than them

You’ve brought me insanity
I discovered its remains in my blood
Because it keeps going
I like to sit by the river and watch my reflection fade away…

Irresistible creature
Came from hell
The steam around you won’t let me think
Because I see you worth nothing

Now that we’re apart
I know I’m safe
Not yet safe from my thoughts
Because you’re just the point of ignition
Not the fire itself…
