Moddi - Poetry

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   

I'll bury my downcast hours in transparent ink,

tie myself to the mast and wait here for the ship to sink

Though I know I've set sail on a wishing well

the daylight is dimming out slowly with every breath I take,

gasps of air become roaring rivers keeping me awake

It gives one no time to think things through.

I know words always come before you do,

but I can't find no poetry left in these lines

I've been trying too hard, too long, too many times



Is this what a biochemist would call happiness?

Is it part of some unmade promise I thought I could forget?

Is it time that I let some air come through?

For now strangling love is all I can do.








Yeah, I know you have mountains of poems in mind,

all explaining how all wounds will heal given time

But these days are no longer my time to spill,

and I know that by waiting, I'll make them stand still



I kept it as close as I could through through those winter nights,

but the ropes only tightened 'round me as I tried to fight

There's no worth throwing stone in a wishing well

Now I'm out of black ink and I know it's all poetry,

know they're just lies,

but I still scavenge on what I find in between those lines

I'll pretend there was happiness, fake to have felt pain

just to feel there's a reason to read it again ...
