A Jester To Them All

There are the good people

And the bad people

The smart people

And the dumb people

The pretty to the not so pretty

I'm just a jester to them all

No difference to anyone around

And there's nothing funny about this at all

Every time I leave

A bird comes to me

Flocking her hair in my face

Laughing at stuff I had said

Behind this wall of comedy

Lies a man with dignity

What gives is to be given

What takes is to be forgotten

So much at stake

Not even funny

Though I can only think of things

That are funny

A jester to myself

A jester to them all...

Innocence lost, hard to trust

Like a broken shadow on a shattered wall

Circle [2009-2011]

HALF CIRCLE [July 2009]

She’s lying there in a slumber
You're wondering if this is real
Should you go on or just let go?
Though, its a long time to go

She'll grow up, she'll mature
And by the laws of nature
So shall you

The distance now just might be good
For in the long run it may do US some good
You have to wait, you have to try
No matter what goes on in your mind

You like her, you like her a lot
If that’s love, what is not?

The clans are different
And so the plans'd be different
One debacle after the other
Is it enough to look for another?
The answer is no, hell no

FULL CIRCLE [April 2010]
On another note,
You wake from your slumber
And realise its not real
You have let go
Its been a long time ago

She never grew up, she never matured
But the laws of nature worked on you

The distance then was no good
For in the close run it didn’t do US any good
I cannot wait, nor wish to try
Cause a lot is going on in my mind

You liked her, liked her a lot
That wasn’t love, just a thrust

The clans were different
And so the plans were definitely different
All debacles later
It’s more than enough to look for another

From the time of the start
To the moment today
I have gone a full circle
With a long delay

Knife

It all starts with a magical kiss

You feel a connection
Everything is rosy
The world is an amazing place

But then, reality seeps in
Sprouting the seed of doubt
The rosiness fades out
Just another day gone about

You're looking for a way out
And God smiles upon you
You sit and think what could’ve been
While she's deep in with a has-been

1000 miles away, love takes a backseat
All the while you don’t have a clue
The knife in your back goes blue

A rush of blood to the head
There goes the icing on the cake
And you realise it was just a phase

You wake the next day, a new man
And freedom sings to you
Relieved the debacle is over
On the quest to find another

Sufferance

During a warm summer afternoon

Feel a chill through my veins
The thick air gives a feeling of impending doom
Not even a beer to make myself cool

Wish for an escape from this madness
But all around is sadness


Longing for a touch, a caress
A noise, a whisper
Of every dame from yonder

A bee buzzing within a flock of cows
No difference to anyone around


Beauty absent from the eyes
Eluded from his own kind


In this world I came alone
No pain no suffering
No joy no fear

Right now I wish I was high
