Curtians

Curtains cover the light
So long it touches the floor
Only the heart shines bright
Seems to bar the door

The lingering fear
Murderous hatred
Life, like mirror
Fear the dead

Hanging, fading, in the sun
Always trapped, always freed
Thinking it is time to run
Others want, other’s greed

Throw a glance
The bargain rife
Devil’s dance
Dance of life
