Shattered Glass
By Luis Porraz

Once the damage is done, I cannot revert the hurt
It lurks like dirt particles, how do I show myself
When I am insecure with cracks like webs
Connecting each memory of that moment
The creation of existence, the beginning of time... For me
Was my birth a wormhole, a portal to another dimension
Why do feel like I don't belong? Not just on earth but in myself
Was there a break in life, a shift in the paradigm of mine
Maybe it just my vision through shattered glass

The cracks remain, remnants of what cannot be forgotten
Scarred fragments of memories, in which flash and strike like lightning
Burning holes, turning wholes into nothing but ashes
A fragile shell, a void fading in and out of reality,
With each step closer to it's demise
Trying to grasp the concept of existence, a reason, a purpose!
All maintained as encrypted data,
With an impenetrable firewall that cannot be undone
What is to become of this thing!
Every word it pukes cries out for help! Except that word itself
It wishes to be yet it cannot see that it has always been a he

"Some song I was writing" By Luis Porraz


I'm sitting here in darkness and I don't know what to do

The shadows are consuming me I wish I could get through
When I think it's over I keep thinking of you
What did you do, what did you do to me
Again and again I try to pretend your words are illusions
Trying to drown out your ways of causing intrusions
But I can't help me
But I can't help me
Sometimes I lose myself in you 
Never wanting to find a way back 
What stops me? what's holding me down?
These thoughts are like quicksand 
Swallowing every motion I make 
Suffocating each and every inch of my body 
Depression is the only branch in reach 
With sadness as my only savior 
I've lost all taste in this world 
Now all I have to savor are my memories 
Because the present and I are enemies 
So many things I tried to say 
But I'm always in a rush 
To get away from you 
Just know its not your fault and it will never be
The distances between us and it is a must 
To keep my sanity 
To dream my fantasies 
To miss my family 
So I can let you see
What's right with me
What's right with me
