  • A Drunken Discovery

      Crystal clear images shine through my brain
      It is as if I were impossible
      When the moon and the stars align in my house
      I find that I am more palpable
      But when the light does run out and I am scattered about
      Does anyone care to notice
      If I was such a man that relinquished his plans
      I believe you’d have been posted
      But I shine like a ghost who believes in you most
      And all that you can say
      When your words have run out and you’re dry in the mouth
      Can you leave so I can enjoy the play
      The actors, they dance, they make me feel alive
      I cut myself so I can feel
      While they’re signing autographs, I give each one a glance
      So they know they will never be real

      Then there is you and all that you care to be
      You enamor the hell out of me
      Did you ever stop to think that I have feelings
      Beyond this drunkard way of living
      You can tell me you care, even when you’re not there
      It’s just something confusing to me

      I know it does not take much to leave me in your dust
      But, come on, just let me live
      I want to give you a kiss, live in your sweet bliss
      Cause that is all you can give
      And I want to just take all that is yours to fake
      There’s nothing ever real
      So get on your knees I want you to watch me bleed
      This is all that I can feel

      Let’s talk about love and how it’s sent from above
      We both know, that is not the truth
      If I were a man, I would bury in the sand
      All that you have ever said
      But I am too tired and this caffeine has me hungry and agreed
      Now pass it so I can be relieved
      If God were, a man and you were his right hand
      Then nothing would ever be received

      It is just a joke that will go up in smoke
      Like some player trying to win a game
      But don’t hate the man who competes in this sham
      He was just trying to propagate
      He said, like I did, I am sorry for this
      But I am so far away
      You have to learn that a man whose twice burned
      Is just a worn out cliché

      So goodbye to you and all the attendees
      This play has gone on too long
      Another bridge has been burned, I know I should have learned
      But my mind has never been that strong
      What is there left to say, but just please go away
      These rhymes have run breathless
      Goodnight and sweet dreams like the baby in loves’ steam
      Whet while stuck within the breast
      It is all just a play, elaborate enough to just take
      Nothing away with you
      Let me slide within myself, make it hard enough to help
      For all that, there is to do
      Because it has all been done, I am tried of these puns
      It just leave me in distress
      All these metaphors that I am in search for
      All I know is I am going to bed
