Compensating, recreating
for all the things I cannot have
for the leaving love I never felt
to light the dark a little bit
I made this world
my very ring to bind them all
and into nothingness to call
Losing everything to low desires
so I accuse myself
then once again succumb
to a recycled standard beauty
that is offered anywhere
and even when not wanted
steps into the picture
telling of its price
Dominating, relocating
I sense the dream I cannot have
and live in one more life not felt
as darkness seizes me again
I can no more come up
with a catchy phrase to counter it
and to conceal
the world I'd like to make
one ring to make the chain complete
to remind me that I cannot cheat
and not even save or load
Birth sign: Capricorn
