Life As I Know It

Another new rule

one more bit of pain

and I watch the dual

between sun and rain

Another new game role

in which flowers must die

the flowers of her soul

and others must lie

They lie over laughter

they lie over hope

their before is your after

they lie and they choke

but out of the blue,

when the mercy tanks sigh

they show what is true

and they kill and they die
