god is just a

wish on a shooting star.

heartbeats stop and

life still hardly seems subpar.

I listen for harmony

but I'm greeted with crime.

he lied only once when

he said he was all mine.

I claim people can't be

'broken' but really we break.

I try my best to be present,

another mistake.

life's not fair

just a big chess game

check, check, checkmate

down in flames.
