My mind is unclear, jammed with a million emotions;
Of fear, love, lust, anger, death, pain and sadness…
Emotions I resent them-yet they seem to overflow, and break the floodgate of my mind;
Searching in the darkness, I crave for finding your lost body,
Sacred as it will be…
The feeling of pain my body bore in the process;
But you did came (as emotions) in my dream,
Are you there? I question, gently my hand reaching out to you…
In the hope that you’ll place yours on mine-
On the highroad of death, I feel like a wolf injured by your car,
A billion emotions now clog my mind (my head is ready to burst)…
And yet you found your way through them like a snake through obstacles,
Your serpentine eyes and your fearless smile inspire me (did it?)
Am I out of my mind? I am standing between the normal and insanity-
Yet I can sense your presence…your grave is right in front of me,
But I wonder why does the gravestone read my name?
I am petrified by the feeling of death…
Rotten ideas like gauntlets of desire haunt me,
My life is now like broken bones and burnt cigarettes;
Why can’t I focus on one emotion at a time?
What have I become? I ask myself,
The answer sleeps only to be awaken at the right time…
