| Songs of a Merry Death
by
J.D. Hallmark
I feel too awkward
Sometimes
I think
I feel too much
The song starts
to play
I make an ass
of myself
Trying to go
to far
No reason
to run
the race
so
fast
It’s easy to lose
control
But the song’s
in my head
Push on harder
Damn the torpedoes
I think I’m sinking
anyways
But the song
keeps getting
louder
Blaze the trail
Keep looking son
The treasure’s
getting closer
Be it a diamond
in the rough
or fool’s
gold
It’s only a hill away
The song drives me on
I think
I’ve been and idiot
I’m lost
The lights are off
All my matches
are wet
I can only hear
the song
Shipwrecked
Alone
Lost in the sand
I write this message
because of the
bottle
I know the song
will never end.
