There's No Winning This Game


Are you different? Are you alone? I know my answer. Are you a clone? Life isn't fair, Just another tragedy. In which losing Is the only strategy. The world is cruel. Revenge is sweet. Love's a sacrifice. Death? A treat. Ice that burns. Fire that soothes. A tear that singes, As it moves. Friends that smirk. Foes that grin. Survival is the game, You cannot win.
