mania

dreamers are selfish and artists are compulsive

the smell of night

snorting stars

to see and be seen

doesn’t matter if you’ve wandered far

a gift of sight

in my dreams

the warmth of your kiss

to achieve something serene

at your side

to achieve tranquility

this time

how long will you stay at mine

i want to be better

so cyclical, this hive mind

all of it is chemical

and i am only one person

or so id like to believe

but when my reflection fractures

each fragment of glass

is where i exist

i am who i am

but i want to better than this

if not for me, for him

words are just words

they mean nothing

so a career as a writer

could never amount to something

mania will always find me

a means to no end

and we share a sweet kiss of death

again
