Nothing

 



In the privacy of my own room, I close the heavy eyes

The blackness follows…fully blind.

Raging storms outside,

Inside my heart - emotional gale.

Tears and rain drops are falling in sync again,

The War of elements is ramping inside and out.

My wounded soul is roaming lonely

Around the forgotten graveyard of painful thoughts.

The storm outside is over, the sun comes up.

However, my internal night is here, cold moonshine.

The Loneliness and the Darkness, my old friends

Joining forces till my bitter end.

I feel like I am dying, same old cycle,

Same old me, same old feelings,

Never-ending insecurities, mentally exhausted

Physically still good me.

 ...

The burden is too heavy, no one understands.

Or maybe the illusionist in me

Is very well equipped to present my alternative reality.

Or maybe I am too good painter, using all the palettes too well

That the picture I have created is not looking like well curated facade.

Or maybe the composer in me used the best notes

To create the hypnotizing song to confuse all living souls.

 ...

I am neither sad nor happy,

I am neither tired nor well- rested,

I am neither all nor nothing,

I am neither good nor bad…

It’s just all those feelings buried deep inside.

Emptiness is neither curse nor blessing,

Black-and-white does not exist,

It’s all a matter of my own perception

Accompanied with a pinch of grief.
