Autumn trees bear the weight of dead flowers
And poisoned by the sands of cruel time,
Crying after bygone springs' faded away dance
Whispering hymns of eternal night
Flying, melting into air...
Dreaming at the gates of death.
Put roses on the altar of fallen angels,
Fight with broken wings of faith,
Close your eyes and wait to see
The light of the snow of decay
Crying under deaf soil, in a heavy coffin
Lies the sacred grail to be filled
With warm blood and tears of snow
And with bones of the ancient breed
Flying, melting into air...
Dreaming at the gates of death.
Rising from the core of earth,
Bringing dark instead of dreams
Came the ti
'Vanitatum vanitas',
Said the Angel, as he flicked
A cigarette butt to the city
Down below, at his feet.
Shrugged silently as he raised
His eyes above to the skies,
Beholding the vast darkness
Seeking for a single spot of light.
Atop an observatory, they say
The closest of places
Humans can be to God,
'What great lies' he thought.
He reached with his hands
For a divine touch he once got,
Praying silently to a father
Who banished his child.
His fingers ran through the place
Where his wings used to be,
'Never more the perfect creature'
Now stripped of his grace.
He shut his eyes tight,
Saw visions of those flames
Eating souls, not purify t
We've sat in the steamy bathroom with dimmed lights, talking about how to make the world a better place. You watched my fingers as I stirred the water, and I watched yours. It was so peaceful, so cozy. It felt just right.
You climbed into the tub, slowly, to get used to the heat. I washed your back. Gently, pouring water from my cupped hands, caressing your olive skin. I felt your muscles relax and then tense. I heard your moans, so sweet as you gave yourself to the feeling. The way you arched your back reminded me of a feline, so graceful, but delicate at the same time.
We weaved our arms around each other. Just sat there in complete silen
Hush, hush, Child
Monsters don't hide
In the dark of night.
Sleep tight, Child
You're not alone.
All evil walk on two feet
Their faces are human,
Hands can give and destroy.
Let them close,
They'll whisper sweet things,
But serpent tongues
Drip poison to your ears.
The arsenic of their words
Laces your brain with sorrow,
As it spreads slowly
Through veins and arteries,
Killing from inside,
But you have to stand up
Have to carry on.
Hush, hush, Child
Monsters don't hide
In the dark of night.
Sleep tight, Child
You are not alone.
You feel small and weak
Abandoned and fragile,
But remember always
You are loved.
Bones can break, and
Wounds
Soulless minds staring
To bricked up windows
While cerulean dreams
Fed to them via IV
Pumping morphines
Into their systems
Hooked up to feeding tubes
Forcing down some
Liquid of cutouts
Promising escape from
All grey and dull
While withering away
Minds of the unborn
Dissolving into wombs
While the amniotic sac
Suffocates them slowly
Instead of nurturing
The remains of abortion
The smoke from a huge
Funeral pyre lingering
Over the city where
We all go to die
Or suffer under
Shadows of demise
Silence.
Time to let you go.
Falling down
Where your arms used to be.
Nothing.
Darkness.
No point waiting
For something never comes.
I am mute.
I am deaf.
I am blind.
The world is spinning
And spiralling into the deep.
You're not there.
The rest is silence.
Researchers say, smells help people to study new things. They say your mind consciously or subconsciously connect different smells to different memories.
I don't know if it's true for others, but it is definitely true for me. There are some distinct fragrances that immediately evoke some memories and feelings, or those memories and feelings evoke the sensation of fragrances.
The smell of the juicy, ripe raspberries on the sun makes me feel freedom. I think of all the childhood summers, when we used to pick them from the vines, and eat them straight away. We didn't care about the thorns, and after a bigger raid we often looked like we lost a
