Road to Realisation

Fall in love,
fail in love,
lose yourself completely
and break your heart.

Delve into madness,
dwell in sadness,
roam around
like you're the most depressed of all.

Thrive on foolish hope,
take the downward slope,
loosen the steady grip
on your keen intellect.

Cry your heart out,
wear a perennial pout,
shed tears of depression
that ruin reason.

Make love your weakness,
fill yourself with meekness,
and be the madman
who's not in his sense.

But open your eyes,
from your fall arise,
and finally ask yourself,
"What's the point?"

Mad Perseverance

Beautiful princess in vermilion shoes,
Seeing her my heart did I lose.
She smiled at me and walked away, but
Forever in my heart she will stay.

Faraway and fast did she walk.
Only in verses do I now talk.
She taught me to love, she enriched my art.
She took with her my little heart.

Stones at me my friends pelt.
'Cause in beautiful dreams do I melt.
I enjoy those moments unworried of my fate,
For I'm only happy, me she doesn't hate.

She has now entered an unknown territory,
Which has a prince and spikes on its periphery.
The walls are thick and really high, but
My heart tells me, "Never-say-die".
