Lucidity
When I walk in the dark, I only see
Between the lashes of your veiled eyes
And I take your counsel loyally
As a sick man his pill
‘Cos you are the Strong
I am the Weak
You lead
I follow
But light has come to stay
I will from today walk by the light
You force to my senses
Treacherous teacher!
What do you know about the cupid to teach?
These precious times I spent with you I grieve
For you betrayed my trust
I am bare in your hand
I become like a naked chicken
Exposed to biting cold
Because you’ve known all of me
I offer my heart, a soul mate
To your lonely soul
I offer my creamy milk
Soothing to your thirsty soul
You make me drunk
of your lies as a man
on strong wine
You left me to stagger
and fall. You betrothed
your heart to another
Yet you profess
Your honesty is as bright as the midday sun
But I’ve read in these deceitful eyes of yours
That you have no need of me
You slay my hope
You crush my spirit
You rip my heart asunder
With the sword of a jilt
You wreck my world
You drown my joy
You sear my soul
With the flame of shame
My comfort:
Is it in the mouth alone that you eulogize
Or in the heart, your place of wickedness
Or in your lips that wet my lips
Or in these fingers that caress and revive?
These things that you do behind me
Define your true self and I see it again
You made me sang my song
of hope with the melodies of
emptiness.
You made me sat my heaven
of bliss among my fiends
in the pit of hell
But now, you’ve opened my eyes to see the light
And I’ll henceforth walk straight
And no more in the dark
