The Scream Within

The stage is set but the floor is still wet

For the eyes have flowed all of last night

And now the only sparkle that lies

Lies within the inferno of burning dreams

Hearts that once were ablaze with the desires of a tomorrow

Now seek solace in the castles of smoke and haze

“Where are you?” shouts someone from inside

But these doors have been closed for long

And whatever name where written once

Have long since lost in dust

Like the names written on the windshields instead of hearts

I look for your marks somewhere in this desert world

To walk away from the ways you would have walked

To be united but in my own solitude

Where the sound of my voice is not killed

By the cacophony of your objectivity

Where it still rains, red, black, blue and white of my dreams

And the six strings still strum the music of some other world.
