I bury my fear everynight.

I trample my fear everynight.

I rekindle everynight the spirit of living a fearless life.


I play with the smoke of the dead fear everynight.

Like life, fear is endless.

Like time, fear is endless

I ceaselessly decompose fear everynight.

I search for the endless phantoms of fear devouring my soul everynight.

I cut the oxygen supply,

I smother, I kill them everynight.

Still they keep pouncing on me...


I fly, I gallop, I run leaving behind endless fear in endless fun

Still it makes a small hole in my spongy heart.


Fear of losing my home and my mother tongue,

fear of loosing my all starts like I lost in the past...

When with blood and flesh forms an overcasted sky.
