Murky sighs slip condemned words
Dark lips speak sugar-coated lies
Breaths exhale pricking thorns
Ears bleed listening
Whispers of deceits
Chapped lips sharpens
Double-sided sword playing games of words
Singing melodies of Hazy truth panting breathless
Mourning of night lives through the day
On dead soul misery of pain’s inflicted
