death lives

..senryu.

• • death lives 

    
    

    the air was blowin', 

    'slips through my veins saying that 

    I'm just nobody. 

    
    

    Never was alone 

    'fore lie revealed the truth 

    life's but a cold wind. 

    
    

    I've learned the laughter 

    they created tears to fall 

    burst of faith was born. 

    
    

    Earth's a shattered mess 

    of greed, pain and shallowness

    world of foolishness. 

    
    

    Nature of man's deeds 

    beneath a darkened dungeon 

    hanging by a thread. 

    
    

    Dark heart still hardened 

    when coins slap a wishing well 

    then a curse was found. 

    
    

    Let this bad dream end 

    though my heart now stops to beat 

    'coz death takes rebirth.

Meets the form of haiku. Interesting concept.

It's simply poetic and true. Death lives. Maybe not just the physical way but even with emotions. Your use of words is just good. Nice one musicfunk. You did well... again. :)
