Illusions

We stood there
Our eyes shining
glazing over the world
It was you and me
Me and you
against the world
Your lips tasted like coco
Mine tasted like salt
or so you said
But you liked...

Something

All these people
Talking like they know
All contradicting themselves
Life is this and that
Well, who cares
None is correct
None will ever be correct
Never take the advice of a man who say they have found meaning to life
Don't meditate because they...

Now

Oh god time
Watts told me its an illusion
Yesterday is a lie
and
Tomorrow is an illusion
All there is
is
a
NOW
All that matters is the NOW

Its all NOW
NOW

Rotten smiles

We will make it
But
We all know it won't be easy
We both will watch the rain pour down the window
Watching the smiles of rotten people roam around us
Knowing full well, they should never affect us
But in the end they do
In the end, we are the ones...

For the haunted

This is for the people like me
The ones sitting with the passion in their heart
But with a raging anxiety inside their chest
With the loneliness and fear
This is for...

A way out

What is his obsession with death ?
I don't know, but I guess he wants to know he always has a way out
A way out from what ?
A way from this I assume
I can't know why
But look at him
Death has put his mark on him
But still smiling
Still laughing ...

Sanctuary

I am sitting in this park
on a worn down bench.
It is beautiful.
The willow tree right above me, cascading it's branches around me like it wants to protect me from the world
The water lay still in front of me, with the occasional splash from the...

To young

Am I to young for suicide
Can young people end it, or do we have to much to live for.
It might be to early
But I will become an old man
An old man with a tough exterior but the bravery of a rabbit
Will I then be able to do it
It might be better...

The view

The tab under the tongue
The smoke in the lung
The liquid in your blood
The grass in the mud
The wind in flood
down the hills
with the shrills
of the kids screaming down the valley
What a...

The accident

Doesn't it disturb you of what you are ?
I don't mean mentally
But physically
Limbs of sorts
Twisted intestines
Grey matter
Nails
Hair
Blood
We even have a skeleton
I have many times thought of the absolute absurdity of it all
Maybe it all was an...

Simplicity

One plus one is two
Right ?
And two plus two is four
Its simple
Chewing is simple
So is pouring down glass after glass of whiskey
So is dragging down the weed smoke
It is easy to numb the pain...

I wish...

Mother is screaming in horror as my father walked into the house, drunk as horse
I hear father screaming something slurred
I wake up in the morning to the broken glass on the floor
I open the fridge; empty
My stomach is screaming for food
Father is...

The Dostoyevsky conundrum

Look inside yourself, inside every dark corner and disgusting thought
Have you found what I found ?
We all do have it, but it's the few that admits it
We all are scared of it, because we all live it.
The self destruction is a beauty.
Something no...

A happy death

It all must have a cause
Why else bother ?
Romeo died for a cause
Even a fucking suicide bomber dies for a cause
When I die, will it be for a cause ?
Or will I die as Camus ?
Will I sit as a numb as now, with a poised liver, and black lungs in 30...

The emperor

What are you doing, sitting alone as the emperor in the castle ?
Where is your loyal servers, knights and jesters ?
Why is your castle in ruins emperor ?
Why is the spiders climbing the walls and the crows nesting in the corners ?
Oh emperor, where...

The fool

The irrationality!
The absurd world, where people love, hate, laugh, cry and fight
We are no more than primitive animals
All we are, is experts at fooling ourselves
Every early morning, every late night, every penny in tax, we tell ourselves has a...

Join me

Remember waking up on a Sunday morning, with birds singing and the sun caress your skin ?
Yeah, me neither.
It might have been like that, but an hour ago feels like a week ago, and 10 years ago doesn't exist no more.
All I remember is the dull....

The escape

What does it matter ?
What does it matter if a man is in pain ?
If he stands by the abys, ready to jump
It doesn't matter if the abyss swallows him, disintegrates him and rip him from existence
One less person on earth.
One less soul in desperate ...

The game

Life
No word has been so misrepresented
Life is beauty, love, laugh and sex
Or so they say at least
life is finding love
life is to find laughter
life is to find meaning in life
Or so they say at least
Some tell me life is a chore
life drains out...

The cat eyes

I met this man
I met this man in a street corner
In a street corner, filled with boxes and a retching smell
A retching smell of rotten fish and spoiled milk
The cats loved it
I guess that was why the man staid there
I never understood it
But we...
