There is nothing to lose
But everything to give up

14

Smiles and tears.
Clichéd and overused.

But that’s how it is.
How it is for everyone.

13

Just a thought
Your promises crucified
A distant echo
Your image engraved on these walls
You were the hope
You told me not to give up on

12

Can’t really decide
If I want to be with you
Or
If I want you to be with me

The distance is unreal
The miles between
Life and death

11

The truth in the eyes
For every lie in life
Did you lose me
Like I lost you
Like I lost myself

10

Imprisoned within the cortex
An illusion called reality
Taken captive by the dreams
Through the walls, I break free

7

Wishes upon a shooing star
A trail of dust in the sky
Leaving the night scarred
Torn between dimensions
A light from the past

6

White mask peeled
Ruptured smiles
Wounds unhealed
And lips cracked

18 others walked in
Smiles upside down
Their insides, skinned
Out of a broken car

The act went on
Forgotten sorrows
Memories forgone
Engulfed in laughter

Riveted in spotlights
A circus life
The end in blight
A circus death

The paint unneeded
A whiteface clown
With a heart conceded
Died an Auguste

5

Frozen teardrops
Helix of memories
Lost count
Incubus past
Sleepless nights
Dreaming a life
Living a dream
Chasing tails
Back to the start
Burnt photographs
Faded pictures
Mute voices
Unvoiced goodbyes
You remember home?

4

Death standing by you
An ironic sight
An angel holding another
Fingers entangled
Yours had once breathed life
Into my empty hands
Ironic to see
His still barren
I wish, I covet, I long
I crave, I cry, I weep
To be Death
One to take you away
