From "Blood Poems for the Death Penguin" by Zeylan

Lost          

I.

Soon to be found
    never lost
She waits.
I wonder; her name?...
If I ask her, she
    will not stay
I wait.
She is leaving;
I wait.

Soon to be lost
    never found


II.

Lost
Where did it go wrong?
        Reason twisted    gone away
The night lies to me
those beuatiful lies
If these lies are truth,
let me live in a world of lies;
Or then let my world be ignorance would it be that
    these lies should corrupt me
And to my mind give life.
