Everywhere else – poem

I struggle in the darkness
Chased by my own soft claws
So lost around my strong flaws
Could never touch happiness

Cold and alone like the night
I am lost, wild, scary bright
I have to say everything
Actually, have to say nothing

What’s wrong?

Who’s wrong?

Me? Them?

The World? People?

From nowhere he’s approaching
Cunningly he’s attracting
Deeper inside, strangles me
With such a kind smile towards me

My whole face falls, full eyed-wide
Seeing scene like audience dyed
Throws back me without a kiss
Further into the abyss

I am there, on this madness
Smiling, working, blossoming
I am there, badly struggling
In the abyss of darkness

Here in the night
Trash in the light
