BREATHING DEAD

 Without my mind, out of my senses

chasing death, as if

finishing life - the only priority

twenty four hours a day are lost

searching for one extra moment

between sunrise and beauty of moon

to chase death.

 

neither aspiring for success

nor aspiring for glory

afraid of tension and attention

living with a bruised soul

aimlessly wandering

without any mission, without any goal.

 

no desire for love, nor of lust

two hoots for both betrayal and trust.

who cares?

for the shadow that follows me and wants to share the pain.

without any tears, without any fears

I still breathe on my own terms

make my roads my way.

every morning is a big celebration

'cause I am LESS ALIVE  with

EACH NEW DAY.
