Not Fair!!!
February 5, 2011
Death does not play fair.
Captures a soul without giving a warning.
Strikes the heart with thousands of knives, but does not drip blood only an aching pain.
Takes the pain of the dead but not the worried.
Doesn't shed a tear, only comes in a flash and leaves in a blink of an eye.
Death does not play fair.
Leaves regrets, broken hearts, and with the loved one.
Gets us all questioning and wondering.
Smiles fade and weeping begins.
Hidden secrets come out.
Death does not play fair.
Struggling to live without the loved one.
Hard to accept the truth.
Death? yeah him, he does not play fair.
