therefore i say nothing

Info

therefore i say nothing

when eyes and the air around feels thick and grey

mere words could not turn back fate

under a street lamp your strengths fade

the stones on the corner tells of bystanders tale

all filled with wishes of comfort and void and pain

whose story is better, which tale to play.

every life of a dream born under stars

then passes through jarring lines of reality

and the tension is there for keeping it alive

but the reasons never take you far

but the logic never seems to work

right before that last fade blows

think again of what you really know.

was it for you or the need to conform

listening merely to meekly agree

jumping from conclusions like a monkey from thoughts

puzzling the colors, patterns and choices alone

but one never really falls until he gives up on getting up

slowly the time becomes a little lenient, its pace in your favor

then what you make of clay 

do you use words

or the feelings 

just say!

as you began to fly

the time back then, when you were swept across by someone special

01
a story of longing

as the sounds of the city increased in the evening chaos, i remember her grace, her silence.
