Little

By dark_sister

Ring around the restless,
pocket full of stones.
A soft target, a hard heart.
Petals of lies, float to the floor.
Misery, misery, a sweet open flood.

A brittle tune,
a crumbling bridge.
This time, that time,
history, history,
we all fall down.

    short, dark, like there's something else you're hiding (maybe that's the point?)... but not overlooked.
