MFFL!

Fate marries humor: love is bred.

Selfishness expands itself: hatrd is fed.

Alcohol slowly kills the pain: tears are shed.

Laughter calls with a hideous voice; you fear instead.

Darkness surrounds you; prayers are said:

an endless litany inside your head.

Cancer soon begins to spread,

and leaves it's signature in red

for all to see.

In your deathbed

your life is led

away from me.

The simple truth is

hardest to see,

when lies devoted

can burden

and bleed.

They dull the pain,

but leave a trail

and harden

and bleed

and bleed.

Instead of believe

and settle, I see

you take it and ask

is it worth what I have?

while I just continue

to bleed

and bleed.
