"An Ordinary Coupling"
This is what I know now,
I can’t say tomorrow but I have this now,
Eventually, we all will vanish into nothingness,
This is the absolute nameless horror of human existence,
Desperation is rooted within all of
Our hysterical attempts of becoming timeless
Because there is nothing more human than trying to escape humanity,
And our finite existence has us begging for more time
So we can beg harder, so we can beg louder and just a bit longer
So don’t pity my unrealistic hope,
I feed upon it
Don’t tie us with separate ropes
Because you are the reflection of me
The definite within the temporary
And I walked the streets of madness to find it,
To find I in Us
To find I in Them
To find I in everyone
Soundlessly yearning to become something
Anything beyond the momentary
Because death is always hungry and never satisfied,
And time? Well time is a fucking fact;
There is no escape in that
So this is us, craving the seductive touch of infinity,
Even insanity, as long as we’re not the next ordinary,
And the caged within us are anxious to derive into curiosity
But we are cowards, and we cowardly continue to crush ourselves
Into the choking sanctuary of our reality
So please let’s wake from our echoing miseries
Let’s burn our heavy emptiness into turbulent entities,
Let us embrace the shunned clichéness of our existence
Because clichés are truisms, and they have chained us together
Chained us so close so we can learn compassion and empathy
But we still choose to practice vanity like its our holy duty,
But please
When we awake again from never gone to sleep,
Here, will be the same sun we all gaze up to,
The same air we breathe, without knowing how to,
Please don’t forget
The reigning truth of us
You are a part of me,
And I am of you,
I hope to see you again,
Sometime very soon
