Collapse - Benighted

He said he is just seven years old,

don’t understand what he is doing here,

none of us can enter the secret spheres,

mechanisms which brought him to dementia

All that he can see looks so strange,

his hands are different, old and wrinkled,

they are covered by tortuous veins,

entire body’s decrepit

Seized with a great distress!

At dawn of his birthday,

the day of his eight years,

the night when he is gone,

fallen asleep in a breath

And never, ever awaken,

dandled in sweet rest,

never, ever awaken,

dandled in sweet REST!

Never, ever awaken,

dandled in sweet rest,

never, ever awaken,

dandled in sweet

Even his own-voice has changed since the last time,

tired, hoarse and breathless

Asking what kind of disease he’s got, he feels exhausted, he can’t stand up,

nobody told him that a cancer is growing in him every day!

He can’t

recognize

anybody

AROUND THE BAD!

He asks for his parents to come but they won’t do,

he keeps the impress that he leaves without having lived

Who are these persons near me, all smiling

with tears running on the cheeks,

why do they claim that they are my children?

Who are these persons near me, all smiling

with tears running on the cheeks,

why do they claim that they are my children?

At dawn of his birthday,

the day of his eight years,

the night when he is gone,

fallen asleep in a breath

And never, ever awaken,

dandled in sweet rest

and never, ever awaken,

dandled in sweet

Who are these persons near me, all smiling

with tears running on the cheeks,

why do they claim that they are my children?
