You come

And go

You want

But you leave

Trying to catch you

I fall too deep

Into the void

A black hole

With your name on

It is heaven and hell

In the middle of this desert

Visitor of now and then

Water me

So I don’t die completely

In these chains

Pleasure of pain

Leaving me waiting

Alone in you

G.O.I.N. 2021

All this time you felt alive
In traces of time you crawl inside
And you fear it is coming
A change in your eyes

And now you know
The cage you’ve been living
And now you know

Terrified of this new finding
You run miles standing still
Like a deer in my headlights
You froze your heart

And now you know
You are not in control
And now you know

I wish I could show you the way
In this evil night
I set you free
To run
Into the forest
