Emotions weighed
lights wane,
echoes fade,
truth reveals,
the fools charade,
promises broken,
edges frayed,
time steals away,
memories made,
everyone left,
yet emptiness stayed,
faking smiles,
souls afraid,
another effigy,
in the masquerade,
dreams forgot,
hope betrayed,
another death,
in an endless crusade,
pains remain,
as hearts decayed,
blood meets tears,
and skin meets blade,
a day in the life,
each escapade,
till the final pawn,
in the game is played
