Salty Candy

by kurt - Virgo

Salty Candy




Locked within my feeble mind
Red as snow, rage fills inside 
Staying calm as a suicidal terrorist 

Angel of darkness leads me to the light 
Safe as a squirrel on a highway 
Sun shines like a rainy day 

Cold as a summer afternoon 
And sunny as winter midnight 
Struggling to survive in the utopian world 

Free as a caged bat 
Trying to burn my way out of an iron cage 
Nervous as a blind man on a cliff on the life stage  

Loud as a muted song 
The voices tell me what to do 
Watching the music from the stereo 

Tortured like a blind man in the darkness
Acceptance is a challenge without a prize 
Being hardcore and remaining part of the “good guys”

Thoughts are flying like a submarine 
Figuring out my planned life 
Incapable of understanding the real world 

Battling emotions like freedom fighters 
They are like roads deprived of a map  
Only listening to what I see 

Life is like a plane with no destination 
And I am high in the sky 
Minds are useless with out imagination 
					

Reason for writing:

    I needed to channel my thoughts, emotions and words.
