The long way home..

Lost it somewhere on the way,

Left with nothing else to say,

Waiting for the light to come,

To end this night lonesome..

The tunnel's end seems too far,

Like a distant guiding star,

Living in the same old fear,

That the end is always near..

The adrenaline stops to flow,

Then the heart feels so low,

Reaching out to nothing again,

And then fighting to stay sane..

I need to go and find it back,

Don't know how I lost my track,

The old magic has to return,

To help me get what I yearn..

Lost in the jungle of life,

Amidst the pain and the strife,

Think it's time to end the roam,

And get on the long way back home..

The Extremes..

A revelation is what I came across last week,

When as usual, the mighty one had met the meek,

There seemed to be a reversal of roles,

Or rather I'd say an exchange of souls..

We always knew we were poles apart,

If one was the brain, the other was the heart,

But little did we know of destiny's ruse,

We now walk in each other's shoes..

Being as different as chalk and cheese,

While one was fire, the other a cold breeze,

But now we know which part we play,

One is a dark night and the other a sunny day..

The chessboard has indeed been given a fright,

It turned out to be black, which it thought to be white,

The world was mistaken, it never understood,

Due to the thin line between the evil and the good..

But their kinship now is stronger than before,

This legendary irony has still a lot in store,

At liquor's abode for years to come,

You'll still find God and the Devil with a bottle of rum..
