Affliction XXIX II MXMVI

by Blindead

/
1.
Slowly crawling on my mind It was growing in my head It was always in my head Craving I cannot ignore Slowly growing in my heart Tension like insanity Figures of life arise! Let the human crawl In passion through shadow and light To gather obsession Sensuality Erotic tale gets details Hidden drawings All the world dreams are in this picture And so Complicity Celebrates Brad new existence Matter, space and time… Constructing the world Consuming the life Constructing the time Matter, space and time…
2.
Muted, distant, unrecognizable sounds… The city, the people, the kitchen, the bathroom, Places I managed to recognize After several days But not by smell I can't smell anything It feels like I'm not breathing My sense of taste also ruthlessly vanished somewhere The last thing I had in my mouth left a metallic aftertaste But it was ages ago I see nothing Gravity is nonexistent Where the hell am I? Impulse how did it happen? Nothingness Why can't I remember who I am, what I am? After a minute I realize I don't remember anything What was yesterday, what's today? I'm suspended in a smudgy, fuzzy, vague, obstinate nothingness I'm swallowed, my world shrinked And keeps getting smaller like it's trying to devour me Then again I have a strong sense of assured safety
3.
My life begins again I wish it would never end Mommy, I'm here for you Daddy, I'm next to you You fear me more and more Pity and cruelty Sunk in dark misery God, how the stars did fall? You never speak my name The eyes oddly Innocent I'm bleeding out my tears Locked in my sanity Unable to stand against Pointless violence Counting and setting things in order To be constant is my true form Incapacity towards this stale Rotten world drives me to create a new entity I dream of coming back to the matrix, to hide To cuddle To dream and fall in love with The warmth and paralyzing unconcern
4.
Nights dark beyond darkness And the days more gray Each one than what had gone before Dust and ash everywhere. Charted and limbless trunks of trees Stretching away on every side Ash moving over the road And the sagging hands of blind Wire strung from the blackened lightpoles Whining thinly in the wind The shape of a city stood in the grayness like a charcoal drawing Sketched across the waste Nothing to see The cold and the silence If only my heart were stone No sign of life. The blackness she woke to on those nights Was sightless and impenetrable A blackness to hurt your ears with listening No sound but the wind In the bare and blackened trees She rose and stood Tottering in that cold autistic dark With her arms out held balance… For falling… For falling… For falling…
5.
Leaving the chaos behind Straight paths lead me far away Beyond the mountain of pain Endless journey To the place of peace I can reach the shining stars I can reach the burning sun It's my paradise asylum Kingdom of me Kingdom of purity It's my paradise asylum! Reflections in the mirrors smiling at me! One colored rainbow summoning the light Delusional perspective falling apart!
6.
I wish I knew how to travel in time… I wish I knew how … I wish I knew how to travel in time… I wish I knew how … Cruel betrayal No one wants to be alone My prison My gateway My freedom My salvation My prison Ghost not seen in a thousands of years Awoke from their slumber
7.
One careless conception One life created Unlucky strange day One father, one mother One worse than the other One sick of anger One disease and one dysfunction One maltreatment, and malfunction One child Sensitive mind One broken tree Life taken away One espace Terrible price to pay One coffin One grave One priest and one word to say Well, I shall have to stay here forever and ever Well, I shall have to stay here forever and ever I fall into the sea of my own tears Of my own tears Affliction I pray for your souls Affliction Affliction Affliction…
