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
