By a silent and deep pond’s edge
A frog resides, guardian of the pledge
I confide my troubles in the echo of his chants
Beneath the crescent moon, I release my heavy stance
I bear the weight of burdens unknown
Imposed by destiny
A cruel game thrown
He offers a comforting echo
A sweet symphony
In this secret dialogue
My soul finds harmony
He provides an echo of truth
A newfound calm
In his amphibian voice
The frog remains
An echo I embrace
In this fleeting moment, liberation takes flight
And within myself
The strength to embrace my own light
The frog whispers hopeful words to me
By the pond’s edge, I find my solace

In the fleeting embrace of the ethereal
Time itself surrenders to a silent ballet
Pretend, a bit more
Smile wide, but it’s thin
In the neon lights, I paint another story
Drift away on the waves of artificial delight
But echoes of emptiness persist through the night
Pouring laughter like it’s going out of style
Shadows waltz, secrets within the fold
Nights wraps me in mysteries
Stories yet untold
Exploring dim corners
Passion veiled in night
Where the obscure whispers weave tales in moonlight

Oblivion
04:03

Lost in the rush, each week ends the same
Immersed in a shameless world
The rhythmic pulse, the raving crowd
The only escape from my pride
Euphoric dive to the abyss
Where pain and pleasure cease to exist
This state, my only guide
Will my sun rise again
A life so cruel, tasteless and gray
I need it all to fade away
But I sink deeper in the void
Where chaos reigns
Vision is blurred, senses are dulled
I see the world in shades of evil
But I still desire, for one night
To feel alive before mourning light
Lost in the mist, I clutch onto my essence
As I dance in the Devil’s presence
My senses are dulled, my soul full of corrosion
But I keep pursuing this strange illusion
They say this gradually drains me
That it’s dragging me towards misery
But in this fleeting moment, I am weightless
Like a bird flying above, fearless
How can I resist the temptation
Of thornless roses and mind stimulation
I know deep inside that this is a cursed deal
That kills me more than it heals
Yet I keep drinking the divine poison
Looking for salvation before self destruction

Fragments of Nothingness
04:56
|
|||
|
I stand motionless, feet trapped in the mud
Waiting for days that never arrive
Illusions are gilded prisons
They shine but lead nowhere
Mirrors shatter, revealing emptiness
Each reflection a lie that tightens its grip
I wander through abstract labyrinths
Where every turn brings me back to the same place
Reality dances around my dreams
And I crumble in this endless nightmare
I scream in silence

Like a gentle venom, it poisons my veins
Reviving the flame of my ancient pains
Its deceitful caresses soothe my sorrow
A precarious balance that consumes my being
Alcohol, like a morning bird
Sings its melody
Alluring and cruel
It carries away my life’s decree
The days become a long twilight’s embrace
Illusions, mere raindrops, vainly fall
Dreams dim, their radiance enthralls
A predator lurks
In Shadows he resides
Devouring promises, where hope subsides
My soul fractures, ensnared by deceit
In its treacherous grasp, I find no retreat

Echoes of Silence
04:40
|
|||
|
Ailments of a brain overworked
Marked under eyes
Wrinkling face warped by negative thoughts
Slouched, counting blades of grass
Frozen to the core, soaked in stormwater
He rises then staggers
Waddling in murky water
Wandering, aimless as a dog battered
Smothered by withering self loathing
He talks to fauna and flora
Will flowers grace his grave
Or will nettles smile to his cadaver
Splashing water on his face as purification
Like an infant, a being close to unlife
And if the silence was the scream that I can’t hear
A desperate call
Bewildered about what awaits me beyond this night
If lights will be brighter after indistinctness

Remain forever in this alternate universe
Unwilling to escape the dopamine rush
I admit my denial, so it's not denial
Let me keep going even if I speak to trees
Is fulfilment worth the price of the sacrifices it requires
Take the paths to the first sounds
Violence dancing in my brain
Forgetting myself at water's edge, geese becoming talkative
Each light a mesmerizing show
I lose myself deep in the forest
Whispering secrets to the brustling leaves
My thoughts reverberating in the stream
Even though the sun caresses my bruised body
Tears on my smiling face
Do you not see what's hidden within
