some like to say
it's the name of the game
toss your hopes to the stars
watch them fall like asteroids encased in flame
one and the same,
lovers and losers
nobody ever wins
unless you're the one causing the bruises
manipulate their minds
before they get the chance
don't become the victim
that's your one simple task
tragically common
love and loss
ever since we were young
that's all that's been awaiting us
painfully pungent
ruthless by design
though not everyone is this way
hollow hearts once broken don't realign
holes in your heart
sewn closer by pretty faces
silly ones with simple dreams
you'll someday heal from what time erases
step over the cracks
lovers and losers
lost too easily in the pretty of pain
not even gold and blue bruises help you see your abusers
lovers and losers
pulses speed without reason
hold me closer in the horror of winter
don't feel the cold-just see the beauty of the season
