Sun swept mountains
Fall heavily upon my soul
Crushing out everything
That I am not
Leaving
Nothing
Behind.
Gracious good-looking hosts
Smile fake smiles
Masking all the contempt in the world
That they feel
Showing
No
Truth.
Precious pretty girls
Crush the hearts of their suitors
Who dare so boldly
To care for them
Leaving
No
Survivors.
Colorfully careless you
Crush me silently
As I dare so boldly
To love – you
Break
My
Heart.
