Casualties

Lying on the road, nearing the last breath,

Picturing the afterlife, waiting for the death.

Yet, the pain doesn't hurt, the bones don't ache,

The smile doesn't leave, the hands don't shake,

Our journey ended before we went the distance,

Funny way to go...to be hit by an ambulance.

My Night Queen

She lives in the dark,

and can't see her way ahead,

Have gotten used to the blindness,

But feels enlightened in her head.

In her knowledge somewhere though,

She nurtures a dream of light,

She has stars in her eyes,

But enjoys more the glamour of the night.

She lives in the dark,

and there she wishes to stay,

And wants to be loved in the dark,

but not in the light of the day.

Biker without a bike

Give me some grass and give me some steel.

Give me some air and I'll give you one deal.

I'll let you crawl, if you just let me fly.

Won't impel you to change, just let me get high.

I'll not even look back to sneer, I'll let you be.

I'll set you free to rot, you just set me free.
