Snowflake


In spring

Last snowflake falls

Temperature is rising

If it knew how long it lasts,

why bother?


Nothing to Do


Summer

As the world burns,

Nothing else to do, but

Step into liquid cool waves

And swim.



No Lights

(Version 1)



Depressed,

No lights inside,

No lights outside of me,

Blood dripping from my eyelids¾

Alone



No Lights

(Version 2)


Depressed

No lights inside

An eternal catnap

Blood dripping from my eyelids

Alone



No Lights

(Version 3)


Depressed

No lights inside

An external catnap

Blood dripping from my eyelids

Alone
