: The Cup that Broke :

The cup that broke housed a thought.

But the hand of chance with the pot,

                  Filled the cup with a different fate!

 

Smiling lips drank up the infusion.

Failed to make that thought sustain!

                      A shattered cup was left behind!

 Stared at the darkness and let my mind go,

 it took me places I used to shine.

 The song kept playin...

Nobody's bleeding

Nobody's bleeding,

But everybody's hurting,

It's a hidden sickness

That we refuse to accept,

An actor’s part,

Theatrical gestures

Our initial response.

We refuse to believe.

They must be faking,

Raking in the sympathy.

A perfectly played role,

A smile betrays them

As the blind decry them,

It's no broken bone...
