Flirting With What

Welcome death, why.
Ones who don't, ones who try.

Life is precious, who says..
Liars of happiness, ones who dread..

Construed intentions.
Dangerous Liaisons.

Daggered Heart.
Bled its part.

Cruel words, condone.
Sticks and stones.

Dare to perceive.
To intrigue.

Not to blame.
Or be shamed.
