The Explorer
Escape from nowhere –
The place you dwell in decay!
As far as your lust
Is caged within this sutured wound
Your human nature prevails!!!
The pulse is distinct,
But the vital spark is fading…
Lost for conversation,
Unable to believe.
Forget if you can,
But dare not forgive –
The oscillation of a pendulum
Will set the record straight!
Tear the visions apart
With nails deep in your skin,
Release from the past
With every drop you bleed,
Devote to hate!
Unleash the pain!
Walking treacherous path
Down to raging deep,
Feeling yet untamed!
Living thousand years
Trapped by phantom fears –
Now it’s time to rebel!
Yet confused and sick
But the seed has burst,
Let them reap what they’ve sown!
Battered half to death,
Licking septic wounds,
Rest in peace is what you wish no more!
Devouring passion to explore
Behind the masks of good and foul!
Enthroned duality –
The root of all morality
Imposed to suppress and control!!!
Under the same Sun
So different and so alone we stand,
Breathing the same air
That feeds our antagonistic minds.
Some say their truth is overwhelming and makes them stronger,
But they are trapped between their factitious concepts of truth and lie…
Tend to be alone –
Protective functions fail!
Read error message on every single grave.
Explore, dig in –
The catch will never worth the chase –
Another landmark!
Burn it down to the core
And blow the ash away.
If death is real,
Your life can’t be a fake!
Take it in,
Live it out!
Until death greets you warm!

When Truth And Knife Unite
Locking wire round the neck,
Angry smile behind your back!
Body’s shivering with cold –
Ready to give your eye teeth for another breath!
Scream is dying yet unborn,
Icy fear assumes control!
Seconds crawling as long as years –
Live your life within one eye blink!
Deceiver!
Enjoy the sophistication
Of your own trap!
Try the inside view.
Deceiver!
Taste the knife in your back twisting in
To the bottom of your hollow heart!
Come on, feel
What thorough eyes cannot see!
Is it you or am I talking to me?
Raging mind is breeding lies no more –
Lack of oxygen breaks the process!
So familiar with this practice –
Doesn’t matter what the stake is,
Path to the Promised Land with gallows
All along the way!
Where’s your famous silver tongue?
Spastic stertor is what I’ve heard so far!
See your world of lies collide
When my truth and knife unite!
Blood as thick as axle grease
To prevent my blade from seizing!
See your world of lies collide
When my truth and knife unite!
Locking wire round the neck,
Angry smile behind your back!
Body’s shivering with cold –
Ready to give your eye teeth for another breath!
Scream is dying yet unborn,
Icy fear assumes control!
Seconds crawling as long as years –
Live your life within one eye blink!
Now when your life belongs to me
Is it where you wished to be
With this shit in your pants?!
So familiar with this practice –
Doesn’t matter what the stake is,
Path to the Promised Land with gallows
All along the way!

Beware The Dreamer
Feel no sorry
For any single day!
What is coming my way?
No pain, no gain –
Try as hard as I can,
Getting less than it takes!
You see me standing at the bottom
Of the same ladder again!
But every time I fall
I’m getting one step closer to my aim!
I think once, you think twice
But your telescopic eyes
Are covered up with reality.
Watch your step, mind your breath,
Fear of ending up like this –
With no laments at your obsequies!
You’re so afraid of dying
All alone in empty room.
Convince yourself you do your best –
Beware the dreamer once were you!
Time’s not a cure!
Suppress your past
When you see your reflection in my shining eyes…
You’ve taught yourself
To wish for few –
Now you fear that I can give much more than you can take!
It gives no hope,
It kills no pain,
But path of mine is straight and plain.
No holding back, not a step aside –
Just let your heart decide!

The Last Drops Of Sanity
(Inspired by “Flowers for Algernon” novel by Daniel Keyes)
The fall begins to where I used to be! Forevermore
The last drops of sanity are slipping through my fingers…
The one who knows his fate,
A mouse in a labyrinth…
Is it me? Or is it what I am not?
The failed experiment? The gift I must be grateful for?
The only thing I hate is
Pity they feel for me!
Another piece of this brilliant mind
Has been erased –
You’ll never know how much it hurts!
The life remains the same to me –
Retard or genius,
I’m out of your world!
What the hell are you staring at me?
I’m not the one you saw the day before!
Why do you tell all these things to me?
Seems like I knew it all a minute ago…
So devastating it feels…
Can only hope that I’ll forget what I loose.
My sudden genius was scaring you, but it seems
The fool is not the one you will choose…
The truth is in my eyes –
What more could one ask for?
When I was standing in a crowd
But still alone and lost,
I never wished to be a new-born hand-made God –
I wished to be with you forevermore!!!

From Misery to Purpose
Unchained!
From misery to purpose I come
Burning
Down to the core of the soul!
The razor’s opening my veins,
There’s no return from breaking point!
Devoid of power,
Once submerged
Into the oceans of despair,
My Gods are rising
Disillusioned,
Tears they cry are bloody-red,
Falling down to sate the thirst
Of the gardens turned to…
…Sand!!!
No more blood to sate this thirst!
Pray!!!
To be erased from the memories of this Earth!
The world is rumbling mad –
Deadly omens of the end!
Used to take your life in stride?
Have the guts to die with pride!
Come, Mother, come!
I feed you from my veins!
The world we loved has gone forever!
I lay this new world at your feet!
So come, Mother, come!
And take it in your grace!!!

My Butterfly
Illusions fade before my eyes!
Frustrated hopes – they matter not.
Come, dance with me, my Butterfly,
And sink in our final lust…
We matter not!
Illusion’s fading!
The final hope
For those forlorn
Is gone!
Reading the skies
In the twinkling of stars,
Joining their cold…
You wish for crusade
In the name of your dreams no more –
All dreams are dead!
Souls will never leave our mortal flesh –
Trapped in decay!
Devoted soul –
My Butterfly!
Embrace me with your broken wings –
They’ll never reach the sky!
Come, dance with me,
And trust my lie –
The hope is still alive till I can
See it in your eyes.
Flitter-winged!
In the night
You pray for candlelight
To finish with your life.
Take my hand,
Touch my lips,
We’ll spend the eons
At the graveyard of our dreams!
Loosing the path
Through the map of your scars.
No second chance…
