And

I'm just a silly soul,
watching the world through a veil,
because I can't bear reality.

And I know I'm not real,
even in front of you
I don't feel, I don't think,
I'm just a bunch of pixels.

And I know I'm losing strength,
trying to hold onto some past dream,
me against an army.

And my reflection is distorted
in my mirror:
eyes too big,
too much hot, salty water
coming out of them;
mouth too red,
but not with the blood
that filled my lungs;
cheeks too hollow,
result of endless nights
spent trying.

And I lost you
and myself
trying to keep us alive.

All the Universes

Light travels fast, light travels far, come and travel with me and with light... far, far away... to the farthest realm... darkness surrounds me, but soon the sky lights up with millions and millions of stars and I am not alone. Oh, sweet cosmic abyss, embrace my poor soul and make me immortal, so I can see... so I can feel... all the universes... all the universes out here... swimming through time until the end of it and the start of a new time in oh so many dimensions... spread out, crumbled up, sticking together, floating, rolling, turtleneck dimensions.

Terribly Lost

Thick mists cover the water, mountains loom over me, an old wooden quay leading to nowhere. Oh, I got so terribly lost, I can see through the fog, but I can't feel the cold. Oh, dance with me on this old wooden quay. I take off my dress and feel the wind, the wind that is roughing up the waters, carressing my skin. Come, follow me, my sweetheart, we'll go for a swim and we'll dance under water in the dark. As the waves crush over me and I sink and I dance, I can see through the mist and the dark. Oh, I got so terribly lost.

Angelic

My body embraces the cold, lying outstretched, letting ice and snow cover me, making me shine. Angelic I will go to my grave.
