Verges means being pushed to the edge.
Like you are being confronted at a knife point
and you just can’t turn around but to dive
into that abyss while you don’t know how deep it was.
You always say that you can’t let them ruin you
but it’s a plain lie you wish that all is perfect.
If only you can cut the wire and kiss the voltage.
If only you can let the rope grip around the neck.
If only you can break the mirror and embrace danger.
Would it change a thing? Ah but no, you just go on
struggling with your inner demons and chase them
wielding that sword to cut-off somebody else’s head.
For you, everyday is a waging battle of wits and reason.
Perfection is costly. Holiness is fatal. Which one are you?
Nobody is born a saint and you won’t believe it too?
Do you suppose to expect the world will applaud a hero?
You raised the bar too high and it left you there isolated
basking in your self-proclaimed brand of narcissism.
Tell me now then, how it hurts to held onto the razor’s edge.
Or screaming mad in silence when you temporarily got insane.
Does it worth to feed people’s expectations and drag your feet
into that unending precipice while you can’t discern the apex?
Excuse my French, but I think you need to stop this disillusion.
Take a turn towards the direction where your heart leads you.
You might be a simple man- confident and unpretentious. Free.

Empty handed you go into spaces
searching for souls like collisions
of grey shapes stumbling down
into staircases heading for exit.
Pass this way. They are the reflections
of glassy things you see staring back
at you- images of the sun battling
against the rogue winds. Then peace
will come knocking at your door
peddling its sepia stained photographs
and pushing nostalgic emotions
tethered to your distant past.
You will not allow it. You will pretend
as if you’ve come a long way from there
and someone has to understand
that they need to break down
the concept of the old life you are not
now. Though they won’t applaud changes
and alone you have to float like a river
where myriad of dreams are waiting
to become realities and rarities.
You have to be lighter than feather.
You should embrace memories
like the colors of the rainbow.
Unmindful and undeterred by fear
gripping like empty boxes and chains
to the blank spaces waiting to be filled
with courage to break through walls.
