Not Easy

So you thought that everything's easy
Until you started playing this game
Now you are under the deep water
And nothing seems to be the same

No one taught you how to swim
You didn't ask and now you sink
You used to float and be OK
Never feeling such a heavy weight

You want to open your mouth
Afraid to scream and suffocate
It's never too late to just walk away
Instead you keep playing this game

There's no one to show you the way
No one will share the blame
There's no right and there's no wrong
No higher ground and no straight road

Practice more your straight face
No way to be free, don't seek the escape
You are the master, you are the slave
Don't let someone else to dig you a grave

A.K.

Celestial Fires

In the orange street lights
And just calm autumn water
Sleeping don't hear sighs
Of the wind, it becomes colder

Isolation and silence
Embrace the one who feels
No more bloody violence
In the night that kills

All the worries, and rises
Above this human world
With the moon and fires
Of the celestial sword

That hangs in the skies
And with gems it shines:
Our only stars, the ones
With whom the Moon dies

When comes the morning hour
The very first one
That brings some new sorrow
Of a new day's sun

A.K.
