Dust

The devil on my shoulder
Says he is proud of me
For all the punishments I’ve taken
For all the poisons I’ve drunk
For making my soul believe
I am miserable.
Well, what should I do?
There is an enemy inside me
There is a monster in my head
And all they do is call me “insane”
I wish I could see through
All the darkness that is surrounding me
And the fog that won’t leave my eyes
But I am not like you
Can’t you see?
I am fighting a battle with an army of dust
Which is going to be all that will remain in the end
So, just let me disappear in the shadows
Carried away in the cold of the abandon I shall go
For you can’t hold on me anymore
It is tough now, but soon will be over
And silence will be comforting
And then maybe you will see
I am not like you.

Sometimes I wonder Just how much could change in only a couple of weeks And how the hell it got to be the way it is now Do you ever think about the times we shared?

Sulfur of Fireworks - Short Story

I sip my coffee as I wait for my profiteroles to arrive. I have been waiting for them more than I judge necessary, but I don’t feel like complaining or being bitter today. The day is being nice and I don’t want to ruin it. I am in a small coffee shop that I discovered in one of my many walks through the city. I was told the little and hidden places are the best ones, and I agree with that. Except when they take forever to bring your food. The profiteroles finally arrive, the apologetic face of the waiter instantly fading away as soon as he sees my smile. Don’t get used to it, friend. It is not a custom of mine to smile at strangers. Unless they bring me food. I eat slowly, appreciating their flavor and the warmth of the coffee. It is black and bitter, the way I like it. The small coffee place is located in a street with a funny name not so far from downtown. I don’t think many people know this place. The advertisement is not very flashy, you would only find it if you knew
