Merissa

 

 

Bodies ache, hearts break

Foolish mind

self-quake

 

Dark night, no light

Battle cry

Take flight

 

Strife bends, life ends

Sorrow stays

World sins

 

Death lurks, new births

Shadows fall

Brings dearths

 

Tears stream, waters gleam

Constant angst

Fake dream

 

Pain hides, face lies

Show a smile

Reprise

 

Love fails, hope ails

Such deceit

Of tales

 

Soft sighs, loud cries

torn is torn

Same ties

 

Judge folks, invokes

Crippled wounds

Uncloaks

 

Insane, what gain

Does spirit give

In vain

 

Realty, foresee

Fact of flunk

Unfree

 

Desires, requires

Wait in right

Backfires

 

Unjust, no trust

This is truth

Adjust

 

Be heard, absurd

Nobody cares

Confirmed

 

Lost town, great crown

What's the point

All drown  

 

Time fades, decades

Beat the clock

Charades

 

Most try, all die

Some use it

Goodbye

 

Madness, sadness

Always in

Blackness

 

Why chains, with reins

Hurts too much

Remains

 

Nonstop, raindrop

Falling first

Closed shop

 

That's it, men quit

Leave them there

Misfit
