Default

Dustbunnies

I awoke today with blue vacant eyes
Staring into heaven
And a swirl inside told me
That time was somehow different

I knew my doldrums had come to a halt
My conscious no longer a pillar of salt
I want my spirit out of it's vault
My soul control without a bitter fault

I want someone to share life with me
No coma soulmate for a poster child reality
We'll find beauty outside of the screen
Then write the adverts in the middle of your dreams

No more background periphary
Just god watching our ballet of beauty
Seeing out hearts bleed in to each other
Tinkering with the machinery of our new life

Sex, money and free will
Dreaming of worlds larger than our own
With a smile for everyone
Anesthetized in the joy of the setting sun


A conscious attempt on my part to write something a little less gloomy. I recently finished reading Girlfriend In A Coma for like the millionth time - it's practically my Bible - so it's partly in the flavor of that.
