“Forever Gray” The Zani 1/07/06
Two innocent little kids, playing house and acting real
Two lost little children, pretending to believe in themselves
Two Lost little pairs, searching the house for each other
Two lost little kiddes, full of love and it’s doubt
She was in love, with a stranger she barely knew
Filling herself with prejudice, she decided it was forever
Kneeling down, she choose, to be the best route to ensnare
Carefully, she crept into his heart, turning right into wrong
Believing in him, just a waste of tyme
Following him down the road and meeting for the first tyme
She spit in his eye, cast him away, tried to remember why
she was in love with this vagrant. He had no money, no self-respect, and he was scared.
So, she shut him away, and tossed the key goodbye
Forevermore that little girl turned her heart forever gray
He was scared, of being delved into, he was frightened
Never in his mind could he encompass a love so strong
It was trying to envision his own demise
And so he went with it, and kept the story true
He had a secret, one she was dying to know.
And so, on the fateful day he revealed his sorrow
She lost herself in himself,
and turned the boys heart, forever gray.
Years down the road, the two met again
Bitter hearts, torn like a rose stem
He tried to play it cool
She tried to keep up with a smile
But she was lost, and he knew it
And he, happened to also be seeking a direction
And she knew it
So sitting together at a coffee shop nearby,
they related their tales to each other
trying to probe for a new weakness
Only to learn, that she was fire, and he was water
Only to learn, that if they’d only stayed together
Then perhaps the road would have been better
and perhaps, they really do love each other
through and through
But than again, perhaps it would have been the same
and we wouldn’t be kids going through and exchanging
of names.
“Open” 1/5/06—Zanimeistar
I’m sick and I need to sleep
give me a coffin so that I may weep
as I close the lid, shut the gate, pretend that im not a freak
lay me down, gentle, as I slowly crash at you feet
and leave me, for 1000 years, so that I can be me
awakened early, I stumble from my slumber
wipe the blood off my lips, another embrace of your lips
and were on the floor, latching onto each others hips
across the room, onto the bed, were we can see the clouds above, floating along like ships.
One more tyme, there is no more tyme left
I must leave in order to save you from myself
don’t worry, I’ll be back. I never mean what I mean
I’ll always be around your back, always.
And just to warn, I can’t lose again
so don’t lose me. Because I need you to open
my coffin and make sure im not me
-love Zani
