Stand back Precious one! Perhaps you cannot see But covered I lie In fleshless wounds Painfully reopened With each touch Full of an ooze Toxic and caustic To porcelain skin Though you've never Heard my cries in the night Be thankful! For the constant ring From the words I sing Deafens and collapses All meanings and senses Tell me about What you want to forget That I may become Constant reminder Lay down before me All fears and regrets Dragged out down the line Hesitation cramps these hands Cracks my voice And at times it seems Pleasure Relaxation Elation, eludes every moment Dim lights in the fog of past Since you seem intent to share My unbearable sufferings I'd only be so happy to oblige For I too was born under a bad sign bu*terfly knives in my belly Uncertainty Anxiety Closest friends Let's learn to live as one To awaken with the new dawn Never to stand alone But by choice or conviction Together, let's awaken calamity's dawn Our lifetime Seals the fate of all lifelines Less than two centuries Self fullfillment of prophecy Still we're ready To turn and face Ancient debts Tidal shadows Rising screams For then we'll know From beginning to end What happened Buried together Beneath ancient debts Finally paid Though repossessed
