death is a once in a lifetime pain
that's simple, like the leaves tomorrow;
a truth: you give the rest of life
to stupid hope under a veil of sorrow

a point for a headache
two points when you fail
four points for the cheating wife
eight points for the dead loyal

stone from my hand, now in lake
watch it sink for heaven's sake
at the bottom, in the cold
darkness hides even the bold
