  • Safe Haven

    Safe Haven


    I close my eyes,
    and look within,
    they cannot breach my safe haven

    I’ve built it up,
    made it strong,
    sealed the cracks that come and gone

    Refrain from closing off it all,
    behind the wall
    there lies the fall

    A prison or a stronghold tall,
    behind the wall
    there lies the fall

    Mercury

    Go on
    Have an affair,
    I really don’t care
    I’ve cried enough for the both of us

    Your wants,
    your lust,
    the broken trust
    I can’t understand why your doing this

    I tell myself,
    you just need some help
    and maybe that’s true, although dangerous

    You pull me down
    We both hit the ground
    Mercury’s wings can’t hold the two of us

    Is it a spell,
    this miserable hell,
    that one might become so insidious

    For I’ve tried my best,
    to outlast your test
    But now, I really don’t give a F__k

  • Chase

    Chase


    I watch how he runs
    Stars know his fate
    I count to 10,
    and wait…

    Let’s make this fun
    Let’s make this great
    The dogs by my side
    they wait…
    they wait…

    They wait for the chase

    A Minimalist, #2

    The following days flash by in a manic frenzy. There’s a pep in my step, and my coworkers notice. At work, I normally keep to myself and have an earbud inlistening to podcasts to pass the time.

    I’m not unique, in this regard. Everyone at the office has their own way of distracting themselves from the day-to-day monotony. Some like to chit-chat by the water cooler. Others, who have been here longer, find creative ways to extend their 30-minute lunch break into several hours. Another guy, slightly below management, takes naps right at his desk; not even trying to hide it, his snores mocking the rest of us.
