I'm darkness
I'm a ghost
of present and future,
a ghost of
nothing and everything.
I'm a word
that nobody wants to hear
and
everybody needs to say.
This is the
difference between being a hero
and
dreaming about being one:
I'm a
shadow of memories,
a shadow of
past, regrets and lost.
But today
I'm drowning, falling and breaking,
screaming,
crushing and dying like never before.
Tonight I’m
whispering to the silence:
“please,
come and get me.
Please,
turn off the sounds of chaos”.
They say.
They lie. They hurt.
They try
and I lose.
They laugh
as I fight.
I run away
as they watch.
I’m a story
of tears and dreams,
a story of heavens
and hells.
I’m a song the dead have to sing
and the living should never forget.
This is the difference between being here
and dreaming about being there:
I’m a reminder of mistakes,
a reminder of past, regrets and lost.
But tomorrow I’ll be floating, rising and
breathing,
crying, sighing and living like ever after.
Then I’ll be shouting to the noise:
“please, come and get me.
Please, turn on the sounds of peace”.
They hush. They lie. They harm.
They laugh and I fight.
They try as I win.
I come back as they lose.
