May we never become
Anonymous corpses in a
Foreign Land.
May our souls
Not linger soulless
Over
Unknown territory
Lost
In search of a Home
Unknown to Us.
May we never sleep
At bottom of ocean floors
Forgotten.
May we never become
Anonymous corpses in a
Foreign Land.
May our souls
Not linger soulless
Over
Unknown territory
Lost
In search of a Home
Unknown to Us.
May we never sleep
At bottom of ocean floors
Forgotten.
I wish I knew to whom you prayed to
Because then I would not be here
Counting Stars
Longing for the Moon to love me.
I once tried to wash
The stench of depression off my skin
Only to reveal
blood
and bones
and an inconsolable darkness.
Teach me how to sleep
Through a burning world
Which cannot be reborn.
I wish my mother warned me
That my existence was a revolution
And I must learn to breathe underwater.
When was the last time
You watered your soul
And watched it grow?
You remind me of my mother
Who gave birth to twins
But cannot say to whom I belong.
Where shall I go
When I am not enough
When I can no longer feed you?
We fall in love with men
Whom are not at ease.
Men who do not touch
Their souls from time to time.
Men who father wars
But not their own children.
Men who win battles
Against the world
But lose
To themselves.
What should I do
When your touch opens up the universe
And you swallow me whole?
