Out of My Mind

I am dying on the hope

you have invented.

Poisoned by the modern universe,

I fade out like a scarlet candle

in your lost hands.

Yesterday I sold my last tear,

but I don't regret losing

my firstborn sigh.

You feed me with thoughts

with no meaning,

your words have lost your mind.

You cheated my best dream again.

I've been waiting for this dream

since your birthday.

Don't come with an armful of freshly picked

stars, instead bring me a few glances

straight into a tangible soul.

I thought we had created

a perfect world.

Where did this scarlet rainbow

come from in an overly heavy sky?

I did not deserve your desires,

I am not worthy of your birth.
