Madman

Silhouette of a madman


A madman glimpses at the window
causing fear and pain

A madman singing a song
that is only heard in his head

He falls and moves
like a drop of rain

Smiles gently
to the view ahead

His strange mumblings
poetry that cannot be said



A dice thrown
a sound deaf
a man alone
isolated
in white
afraid.



A madman crosses his fingers
dancing in front of him

A madman painted by the window
forever trembling in hurt.

-Spartagous

Este poema me recuera quien no puedo ser. Luego, me parecio leer a Metallica por un momento. Pero despues recorde a Roy Orbison's "In Dreams":
candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
Go to sleep. everything is all right.

I close my eyes, then I drift away
Into the magic night. I softly say
A silent prayerlike dreamers do.
Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you.

In dreams I walk with you. in dreams I talk to you.
In dreams youre mine. all of the time were together
In dreams, in dreams.

But just before the dawn, I awake and find you gone.
I cant help it, I cant help it, if I cry.
I remember that you said goodbye.

Its too bad that all these things, can only happen in my dreams
Only in dreams in beautiful dreams.
