dare

 

killing you with kindness

loving you with doubt

inhaling lies

exhaling loud

 

constant circling

piercing faults

drowning slowly

voiceless thoughts

 

chest fire

torched blood

cold has expired

war has begun

 

free  betrayal

expensive  attack

system fail

regret is exact

 

blame is wise

shame is fair

my demise

you're a dare

 

 

dare me to jump

dare me to fight

dare me to run

dare me to tonight

 

but do not dare be so BOLD

do not listen to what you're told

for without this heat

your are

                  

 

                                                                                                                 alone.
