Stabwound
The void gets closer, towards the edge Silent and unseen, sabled and gnawing At least no keeper of all these lost causes As I stare in it, it stares back at me Piercing glances, pitch black marble eyes A slipstream disruptive, no man can oppose Hurl my bones down there, throw them with great force Show no mercy, the void gulps them down I found no saviour in nothing, this world is a coffin One moment to collapse, one to hold on I cherish these thoughts across timeless seething watеrs May they swallow what the void left of mе Unlike the waves, these questions won‘t hush Where will we lead to, where may we roam? Confessions are made, but we won’t abide We are quite restless, but all our heroes are dead Graves at sea, graves engulfed by the abyss No places known, where they can’t be found I carry this burden, may I conk out Cause even in lentic waters, I will bog down Reeling creatures, suffocating in mire Won’t be recognized, but wounds remain Sanity is for the passive, the weak and tedious Subside, sink deeper, sink or swim Burning bridges seared to death whom they beared I carry stones in my pocket to stand clear from the surface The last rays of the sun, seem like distressed regards Now finally receiving peace, in autumns early graves

Life’s all ‘bout pistanthrophobia All about the distrust in man It’s all ‘bout hearts placed in confidence Our last harbour in the back of beyond A humble walk on rough broken ground A clandestine treason on the promises made Give me one more reason to break down these high fences As the yards that I crossed were built without gates As you trespass this threshold, it’s over and gone So many years that passed by, all in vain Without auxesis, this was my longest way home Let‘s touch our glasses to this bondage at choice Mother of darkness, please take my hand Purge all my memories, be my guide Father of dead faint, beacon my way Through tales of heartfelt contempt, arm my voice

Dear Mary, annually I waited for a sign of life Every knock at the door Every face in the streets I thought I‘d discern you As the summers passed, one after another I never lost confidence, since you always meet twice in life But I wrecked my brain to the pate, every fucking single day What could be the reason you are still gone And won’t come back Trembling eyes keep on staring the sun's light Dazed and dried up, willing to close forеver Somehow I couldn’t refusе the impact It‘s warm embrace tried to mislead me… Once more I never trusted the blithe times, no faith hereafter No reliance to no one, always supposing outrage Treasures unlocked, but buried in flooded chasms Fairly close, but beyond my reach Call me a lost soul, call me a gloomster But I won’t trace you a free world I can’t imagine Come on Mary, sow the seeds Hope for the best, hope that they sprout Bountiful harvest just thrives with vigilance Take Care! Take care! I wish you well!

Watership down this novel departed and will come to a close Even if you try to refuse On further reflections this was bound to happen You won’t convince me neither The land of milk and honey, just vanity I know it’s scraping the barrel now But every living creature on earth, it dies alone! You must have wandered through the darkest dales To appear at this bold cliffs you can’t step further on I’m a shepherd without flock, a seeker without name They call mе the lonesome, a man bеyond all hope I’m the last of my kind, the sheer farouche Every sunlight causes shadows, causes drought and forest fires Despite prima facie presumption I found truth in every case My heart’s like an ocean, most of the time swearing off to rest Causing concussions in the depths, willing to obstruct every stronghold Shall all of them burst!

Down with the wolves! With daggers drawn right under my coat I’ll face them on the first light, the desiderated day Darkness may protect you, but I am kinda stouted All or nothing’s the stake This is the point of no return And once again I’m blinded by the rain Blinded like deer in fucking headlights This autumn claims, again a couple of victims And I’m down with the wolves once more Down with the wolves! Down with my addiction! The noise of this city is slowly killing my ears Appearances aren’t deceitful, it never sleeps Lonely hеarts digress themselvеs in the streets I’ve never been to such a mean place What a pity that concrete won’t burn Fuck this city! Keep let it go! Fuck this city! Keep let it go! Better start walking on planks! So we won’t save this earth, it’s wounded soil As long as we paint fires across the skyline Embers dress the sky in a red glowing vesture And many man will fall, let the dead bury the dead! Let the dead bury the dead!

The fetters were heavy, so awkward to unknot The stairs out of this oubliette, higher than I can put into words Thousands of sealed doors, built without a lock I just escaped thereof selling my memories for petty betrayals Once they called me a shepherd, a latish repatriate I may have overstayed the latest gatherings, but probably I missed the train Perhaps I was like crippled for a few weeks in June But as soon as I obtainеd my mind, I set out, leaving for home I turnеd over the last page and reached the stories end A tale as short, is its heights were lows A fall into oblivion, such a disappointing outcome What a ungifted writer, we could have had a better nub Deliver me the architect of these deep dark chambers A room without windows, I’ll never call home We should be due to the last of November It’s getting cold here, at the latest with first snow To maintain my memories, I’ll have to bury them abyssal I should reach the rocks bottom, so I can forget about myself I never built ruins but apparently some condemned houses Carry me home river of lethe, along roads that won’t end
