“Foggy Haze”

“Foggy Haze”

By Derek Felix AKA DFlex

It happened so suddenly the other day

While I was at the park for a walk

The sun was burnt orange on Monday

It left me wondering after I had stopped

I took a few shots of the bright sky

Without realizing anything had changed

When I got back, I never asked why

Until later, the next day when things looked deranged

The first thing I noticed was the uncomfortable smell

It smelt like burnt rubber as I got to my car

The sky had morphed into hell

The sun was barely visible from afar

A foggy haze

Took over our place

A foggy haze

Made it feel like outer space

It got worse as day became night

The smell of fire was suddenly everywhere

It felt like a soul had been burning while dimming the light

Creating an uneasy breeze along with smoke over here

There’s no escape from the chalk of gray

That’s dampened the mood outside

Paradise from a few days ago feels like yesterday

It’s been so long since then due to being trapped inside

The wildfires up north have caused unhealthy conditions

That has left fog and haze drifting around

Leaving us to make the most logical decisions

Until it dissipates, we must stay up and down

A foggy haze

Has left me confused

A foggy haze

Can cause us to lose

“A Dark Despair”

“A Dark Despair”

By Derek Felix AKA DFlex

It’s late again

And you are wide awake in bed

Pondering such dark thoughts of sin

As your cold heart turns beet red

You can’t imagine why

Your mind winds up in dissent at night

But it corrupts your soul into a deep cry

It’s as if you blacked out into a world of fright

You suddenly feel chills up and down your spine

And yet you fantasize about her over and over

What would it be like to be together you play in your warped mind

All you want to do is fuck her and become nighttime lovers

No one has to know you tell yourself inside

Even if it’s someone you know you can never have

But the devil keeps telling you to take her for a wild ride

Get her alone in a secluded place where you can get what you want

A dark despair

Has taken you to this forbidden place

A dark despair

Has made your heart begin to race

You can’t just let go of what you feel

Time is of the essence and taken its toll

Sooner or later, you need to tell her for real

The darkness has driven you to the point of no control

That bad angel is winning the fight

You no longer want to be so innocent and good

It’s pushing you to see a different light

And go in a direction towards hell that’s suddenly your mood

Who gives a damn what’s right or wrong

The little voice inside is telling you can do what you desire

Hit on her and take her to the beach until the break of dawn

The art of seduction makes you want to go higher into the fire

Is it so bad to be so sinister for once in your life

To pursue your fantasies and live on the edge

Make them a reality and cut the tension with a knife

She’s there to be taken to the ledge

A dark despair

Has brought you to a colder place

A dark despair

Has shown the demon in your face
