maybe it's 'cause we're all gonna die

a friend couldn't understand my fascination with the occult
another one asked if I was not scared to watch horror movies
my answer to both of them was that it could have been the result
of me trying to escape from the terrors of reality

i had so many nightmares, a lot of frightening visions, did i
yet none was as dreadful as the sheer thought that occurred to me
one night when i woke up as a teenager and knew that i would die
and there was nothing in this world that i could do about it

developing

is it developing to find a new life
while still running after the old one
and to meet someone on the route at night
just to say goodbye to your old love

you are developing a life that you've missed
because you just didn't see the chance
so you know it was the last time you kissed
while exchanging a final glance

changelings

They stand motionless like changelings in a cricket field,
I find it difficult to walk between them without fear.
Not only their clothes are dark but their minds and their mood,
and even when they move they seem to be made of wood.
Any colors in appearance or in behavior they might take as offence,
and a whole party of them claims this to be their protence...
