Countdown

1 sound

2 dead

3 people found but

4 said

5 people

entered apartment 6

and 7 bangs

caused 8 screams

and 9 police cars

turned 1 left to anger and sadness level 10

10

Life is a light only viewable from the dark

And when you see that

People are the extreme walls of your demise

and so many people see

8

different ways that they could hurt you

different ways to make you shine.

7

Friends and fourteen faces

tell you truths and rivers of lies

6

is the number for the letter F

F is one letter that tells you lies

5

out of ten is what people rate you

You aren't any Mr./Mrs. Congeniality

4

Different lines

Showing the way

Of death and life

Of truth and lies

3

Police bust down your door

As you sound off one more

groups 10 guns point

life flashes by

but

1

bullet

ends it all
