Tiger

A plain heart that cuts
Through all the acerbic dust
A technological lust
A phone becomes rust
A seer who found a link between stars and gas
Neutrinos and Schrodinger’s cat
Protons are hell
We see our own lives
Spinning all around as it meant to be
A poem’s on fire
A prism of light like a lightning seed
A stony path between heaven and ochre yards
A flurry of dead moon flowers
We made a mistake
And powers that be
They can’t really see the love that exists between you and me
A melancholy rhyme
A starlight that shines
Actions that echo in space and time
A poetical sign
I’m so tired of this nursery rhyme
Oooh ha ha ohhhh
Ha ha ha ohhh oooh
A silence that kills
Insatiable rips my tongue
A tiger has ripped my lungs
Unable to breathe
A figure of speech crawling through arctic veins
You left me when I needed a friend
A quarrelsome mind
And we don’t see
We’re spinning all around as if it’s meant to be
A poem’s on fire
A prism of light like a lightning seed

Vilnius

A scythe a funeral pyre
The smoke hits our eyes and stings
The Hill of Three Crosses
Burns a golden sun
I was meant to be playing C
Oh what a scene
I was young as can be
A meteor in my heart
The snow that pounds my feet
And life it soars so brightly
An angel hides her tears
That were meant for me
In the dying streets
Where we were meant to meet
But I forgot your number
See the priests they go the love they show
Hold on my Vilnius
A Hebrew song an old man’s lungs
Hold on my Vilnius
I see a cage and hold my rage
Hold on my Vilnius
I was meant to be
Playing C
Oh what a scene
Wasn’t yet an orphan
See the priests they go
The snow it falls
Hold on my Vilnius
A Hebrew song
An old man’s lungs
Hold on my Vilnius
I see a cage and hold my rage
Hold on my Vilnius
We were meant to meet in the dying streets
But I forgot your number

New Dawn

I’m travelling to a new town
Wanting to leave my mind but failing all the time
I’m stuck here staring at the train tracks
I want to filter my liquid-coloured dreams
I want to know when life will change
So I can reach out for a new day
Tired of manifesting
Tired of love
I have a hole in my heart oh my God
I was always fighting with my thoughts
Trying to find peace amid the wars
I was overthinking life
I was overcome with strife
So I watch the clouds go by
Now the winter’s gone
Summer’s nearby
And I think of events in the past
They reverberate and torture us last
I want to know when life will change
So I can reach out for a new day
Tired of manifesting
Tired of love
I have a hole in my heart oh my God
I was always fighting with my thoughts
Trying to find peace amid the wars
I was overthinking life
I was overcome with strife
I was overthinking life
I was overcome with strife
I want to know when life will change
So I can reach out for a new day
Tired of manifesting
Tired of love
I have a hole in my heart oh my God
I was always fighting with my thoughts
Trying to find peace amid the wars
I was a fever
I was a sword
I was a loner and a lord
I was overthinking life
I was overcome with strife
