untitled 8
by: the IMP


    i wonder often what is the purpose...
    of life, of love, of so many different things...
    they keep crawling like spiders in my head
    they keep coming without a sense of retribution
    i felt insane amidst the beat in my head
    i am alone often in the jungle of clairaudience...
    sensing things, hearing sounds that lingers...
    i wish there was silence to condole my grievances,
    but silence is my haunter i could not run from
    i dwell in a room i call escapism,
    for there are so many things i could not understand
    why do i live in solitude? why do i run?
    why does so many suffer in flick of a dime?
    why do God permit wickedness throughout?
    why i ... why do i live to die?
    sometimes i sit in a corner like a scared brat
    incapable to love yet always trying hard
    to die without a bit of purpose; my incubus
    to live without a pinch of sense; my succubus
    am i just a machine that God plays?...
    or a mud of clay that grimes astray?
    i know many live just like me
    for some reason we are pointless smokes...
    to live to die... i don’t know why...
    for i am lost in this world of lie...
