Will You?

I will be in a War tonight,
Will you pray for me?
I’ll try and make it back tomorrow,
Will you wait for me?
But if I don’t make it through the night,
Will you keep a smile and not mourn for me?

Unwanted

I am an unwanted guest.
I have everything but home.
I want to come home.
Please, just let me go home.

Let Me Be

I want to be alone tonight.

Go away! Just disappear.

Let me be. Go on.

Let me be alone tonight.

You can come later.

Insomniac

I could not shut these eyes tonight.
Like every other night.
I could but my mind would wander.
You, yes you, are you reading this?
Then maybe we are the same.
Let's not sleep tonight.
Let's stay awake and wait,
until the sun comes up, together.

A Tale of a Storyteller

Looking down on me,
I am the worst storyteller, so they say.
‘Cause I deliver the truth.
And truth is ever so ugly.

Strangers

I took a walk today,
never thought I’d met you.
You smiled, and I replied.
That was it.
We were strangers again.

Jaded

You’re not here.
I take a glimpse at the time,
I am Jaded.

I Want To Live

You are abstruse.
Trap in this maisonette,
and made me a mannequin.
Let go of me so I can live.
