Alchemy

Your devil called my angel, upside down
Peeking from beneath a sky of lava
Oh, hell’s angels roam this daylight
Casting you still and watching your eyes roll back
So close to heaven like that
Knocking door to door but no answer
There’s a strange flower in the garden
Blooming with its petals in the earth
Devoid of love or hate, roots upturned
The world seems hardened
Your devil called my angel, upside down
Peeking from beneath a sky of lava
Oh, hell’s angels roam this daylight
Casting you still and watching your eyes roll back
So close to heaven like that
The one with its head in the ground, indifferent
Surrounded by shroom clouds
Today this drinking bird aims to draw back more than a wet beak
These days are meager
There must be more than this
Again, like a swan plunging to draw back more than this
Out of strikes
No answer, unfurled a new being
From what they called a grave
Caped a bloodless womb
Slept many moons
Devouring the earth’s core
By each finger, by each element
Nothings left as it was found
I am to be remembered

Blood Flower
03:45

The bees dying, still sting
The bees dying
Will soon be long dead and gone
With the moment, now gone
How will they find you?
What good, what function is a hallow hive
Now the buzz replaced by quiet, nightly
There’s blood in this flower, honey
No fighting for a time that won’t last
Can’t you believe my time is now
Or else you’ll be passed by
Never to feel so alive again
Such a short attention span
Oh, too soon to die
Invigorated temporarily
So superficial and material
No, you can’t believe the hype
Like the smoke before the fire
Indebted to the ones who made you
The ones who claim you, own you oh
But slow and steady I go
Embracing the agonies of glory
I don’t look up
Just ahead with a mirror to my front
Guarding my back, tracing my steps
So, I never look back
The bees dying, still sting
The bees
Will soon be long dead and gone
With the moment, now gone
How will they find you?
What good, what function is a hallow hive
Now the buzz replaced by quiet, nightly
There’s blood in this flower, honey

Idyllic Chords

Idyllic one hand on each other’s heart
No vowels could ever tie us tighter than the chords
We’re already bound together with
No blade could break its strength
We’ve been apart too long
Who knows in God’s time?
It feels like eons of watching darkness
I’m tired of waking up without you
I’m tired of waking up alone
Abandoned from yet another dream of you
Refreshed in your residual
I’d endure many lifetimes more
To be reunited with you again
One day, just one day, one year
It seems forbidden now
Hurt by the fleeting
All day I look forward to sleep
Seeking you out like a lost spot in a book
Where I wait again to find the word
So, we can begin again
Where we left off
Painted inside my eyelids
So vivid was your warmth
Synched my heart to yours
So pure was the feeling
Higher than ever before
Dancing on the moon
We’ve been apart too long
Who knows in God’s time?
It feels like eons of watching darkness
I’m tired of waking up without you
I’m tired of waking up alone
Abandoned from yet another dream of you
All day I look forward to sleep
Seeking you out like a lost spot in a book
Where I wait again to find the word
So, we can begin again
Where we left off
Painted inside my eyelids
So vivid was your warmth
Synched my heart to yours
So pure was the feeling
Higher than ever before
Dancing on the moon
