THE MAD ATOMS
I.
My loneliness
drives me to run
run
run to another's lonliness
I will seek the one
who will hurt me
as before
I seek
seek
But can never wait
for the void to find me
For the solitude
the solice I crave
I fear
Fear forces me to
run
from my bliss
I ache
I seek too much
I run too much
into the arms
of other's
fears
then,
they
are mine
I forget my own
I lose myself
But not the way
I need to
the way
I truly
hunger for
I run
run
run to the people
like you.
II.
Like a mad atom
a chain reaction
a white light
Blinding us
to the beatings
we inflicted
We destroy ourselves in that
We
Before we are ready for it
Part of
the masses
the dross
the mob
the
worst
common
denominators
Now...
I run from
people
like you
To the solitude
To my arms
Silence
Solice
Confidence
The I
of my eyes
Silence
silence...
and the rest is silence... *
