The Perks of Death
hurt fades
a mantra
distance themselves
from all
hurt fades.
hurt fades
They say
crying, writing
last words
hurt fades.
hurt fades
thoughts, they
vanish quickly
at night
hurt fades.
hurt fades
where the
lonely wander
dust roads
hurt fades.
hurt fades
from limp
bodies hanging
from trees
hurt fades.
hurt fades --
it takes
a lifetime.
