Highway

Dancing on a abandoned highway
It was built for kings and queens
but now it´s the kingdom of drunken fools
in their brand new, shiny cars
Their lights blinding my eyes

Dancing on a empty highway
And it´s going to be highway to heaven tonight

Just dancing there, between the lanes
Waiting for the kings and quuens
and their grand court
This time I´m one of the duchesses

Dancing on a great highway
in my shiny dancing shoes
One of the drunken fools will come and
ask me to dance with him
And I´ll say yes,
without a doubt
I´ll dance untill I die
in the shiny lights

My inner voices

My inner voices are asking me:
-What are you still doing here?
You won´t be given
what you would deserve
Because you don´t live in one of your realitys,
hard work will be awarded by nobody

They want only answers to their questions
they make up to ask
They want all benefits,
but not the person who is you

It´s heartless they are looking for

They find it well-known and reliable

What am I still doing here?

Tickling

I´m running out of ways
to make you feel the pain
I could hit you by car
but you would only laugh

And ask for more

You are never serious,
because nothing ever hurts
You are so deaf, so numb

Only thing that still gets through is the pain

And it only tickles

I could kill you
and look you in the eyes
But I couldn´t find any feelings there

You are already kind of dead

Tip-toe

You can tip-toe like you want
Always staggering on the edge of doom
But you are already doomed

The past has been hidden
and all the lessons it had are gone

You´re master in tip-toeing
and a graceful dancer,
listening a beat rest of us can´t feel with our ears

Like you ever had a choice

And it´s not just about the hidden things:
The lies matter too

Like you ever wanted to escape your roots

Men aren´t weak

All the colors of rainbow
you find on your skin
Bloody red, stormy blue, sick yellow
moldy green
Bleeding scratches you can cope with too
tiger´s nail marks creasing intact surface

And you carry your bruises with pride
because men aren´t weak

What kind of man would get beaten up?

You stick with those marks in secret
and that shame
You won´t cry

Because it´s not whacks that hurt
but that face

What kind of man would complain about this?

Men aren´t weak

I just got the idea from my fairytaleworld but it didn´t work out as nicely as I though it would have. I should have written it right away, not after a week from getting the idea. well. here it is, couldn´t resist posting it.

What did you do #2

You´re really messed up,
aren´t you
All the little pieces
in your head
are running away
You´re lost and alone,
aren´t you

Just admit it

What did you do, what did you do?
It can´t matter because you don´t remember,
don´t you

Your heart hurts but it can´t matter
because you don´t feel it
because you are what you are,
a big deadlock,
aren´t you

You happened to do something really bad this time,
didn´t you

What did you do?
I can´t tell but they surely soon will
What should you do next?
I can´t say but they will
Even though they don´t know either

You don´t remember but they will
And they will forever
But it can´t matter because you won´t believe them,
won´t you

It has been harder #2

Since you´ve been gone
There has been more room in my head
More space to feel the agony
And seems like it´s ready to overwhelm it all

It´s moving in, making a nest
Why did you have to go?

Since you´ve been gone
There has been more time
more time to think my agony
And you know, thinking makes it bigger
I´ve been feeding it
since you...

left me.

It´s hard to say it loud

Since you´ve been gone
It has been harder

Nightmares

They say that death is like falling asleep
between white sheets
That it won´t hurt or feel bad
and that the fear comes from old legends

But what if I fall asleep
for eternity
and all I see is nightmares
where all my beloveds are burnt on a pyre

Nightmares forever
You can´t wake up

They say that death ain´t bad thing
it´s just another side of life

But what if even death won´t bring harmony
but only the most horrible visions from somewhere deep?

A monkey

I´m here only for your entertaiment
I´m dancing on a leash,
made from iron links
And so you laugh at me

I´m the best entertaiment in this city

I´m here just to make you suckers feel a bit better
and you know it too
That´s what makes this all fun for you

You need a loser
you can compare yourself to
just to feel more beautiful and
more special

I´m a monkey, dancing on a leash
But I´ve made you all look clowns
because you came here

The same sky

Lives I cannot see, are the salt of my life
Breaths that are far away from me, are the reason why I stay alive
Eyes I haven´t ever seen, look right through me and see who I am
Smiles that are unknown to me, keep making me smile while I still can.
faces in unknown cities, give me my words and lines

Lifting me off my ground, they're my angels in disguise
I keep falling and failing, so do they too, but together we will fly high above
We'll still land safe in the grounds, even though our feet are scarred and rough.
Wherever those lives are, they'll still make me smile,
And even though we're miles apart, we still have the same sky.

My very first duet ever and I did it with Devil´s Pride. We didn´t actually plan to do this... It just happened, like my poetry usually does. Thank you, Dear Poet Devil´s Pride!

Diamond bodies

Our bodies, made from diamonds,
could run forever and not get tired
and sleep wasn´t a need to us
I believed the giant´s leaps
could take us anywhere we wanted

Your body, molded from diamonds,
is now sealed into a wooden coffin
and I can´t take the nails off
They´ll put the eternal youth down to the ground
and I´m not allowed to lift you up

If they had let you go
Go with the winds
No one can escape from the ground
