Stuck
April 27, 2015 By: Steve Jones
Can you justify playing this game? Living on inequity of despair As a fly settles on the window pane Sunrises saying your only prayer...
Is there any comfort in what you feel? An uneasy odor is in your air And yet you dance on the coldness of steel The mightiest of deeds atop a dare...
It is not time to move on and aspire? Having seen all the fallen beside you But how you're alright standing in the fire Just holding your breath until you turn blue...
Don't know any better after all that? Life doesn't care as a matter of fact...
