why do people die
how do people cry
This is how “it” goes
You can't change how life flows
During the day or during the night
You'll never know the time of a person's flight.

Do stars ever die?

My hands started moving only by itself
All I wanted to do was to read a book
I failed to find one
So I started to look

I went towards my room because I could
only to realize I held on to some wood
I needed to know what I had to do
I stuck the wood on the wall 
And the glue started to crawl

My hands were pushed towards the wood 
And there it finally withstood
I didn’t know what to do 
So I found something new
and I did something I always wanted to do

Pretending you care
For your words gut me
Into endless despair 

You string your sentences 
Demanding your own independence 
Not feeling an inkling 
Of guilt for my feelings

I keep sinking and sinking 
Dronwing, not feeling
The painful awakening 
Of my very own making 

I feel too much 
I bury it deep down
Descending until it becomes 
A crutch I don like a crown

I plead with you,
I cry 
I sing for you
Many lies

A siren in the night 
Hoping for a knight
A savior, a hero
Someone to be thorough

Keep me from the mist
Of the dark abyss 
The ocean is calling 
And I must say, it is enthralling

Why does the solar system rotate around a fallacy? 
The solar system is a system. 
Why does the solar system consist of a theorem?
The solar system is faculty. 
Why does the solar system sound like a fantasy? 
The solar system is a rhythm. 
Why does the solar system have helium, and maybe magnesium?

She borrows.
Away from all  sorrows.
So deeply she dreams.
Her tears of joy she sees.
''Hold on'' she says.
Escaping her pain.
Life can be cruel.
But dreaming can be cool !

What color are the stars?

The sky is blue not violet 
I wonder why 
The sky is blue and sun is yellow
I wonder why 
The sky is blue and space is black
I wonder why
The sky is so high
I am curious to know 
Why do you think that so?
