Living in the void

Living in the void

Never been heard

Never been seen

Couldn’t understand

I retrieved from the scenes

And hid myself in the void

Painted it in black

Painted it in red

Cold colors

Rainbow shades

Sunshine heat

Moonlight blues

Rains and thunders

Rivers hugging oceans

Mountains high

Deep forest roads

Love and betrayals

Hope and despair

Everything human

Everything demons

But nothing real

Not a drop of blood was really mine

Love was not meant for me to bleed

Tears grew flowers

But honeybees disappeared

I have seen how life can be taken away

The void is me

I have not lived

I have not died

I don’t even know my name

Just a silhouette

In shape of Satan with angel wings

Exhaling lies

Exhaling truth

Shame in flames

But integrity is the rain

Hanging somewhere between Heaven and Earth

I cannot hear my calling

Wish I could swim in the depth of the ocean

Drowned in the darkness

Will the light find me and drag me to the surface?

Wish I could reach the highest sky

From above

Will I be able to look down the truth?

Where did I begin?

Where will I end?

Do I really want to know?

I don’t even know my name

But I don’t want to be the void

I don’t want to be void
