He and She
He lies,
He cheats
He smiles,
ANd he beats
Those things,
Chain us to our feet
And lead us to defeat
She cries,
She weeps
She hides,
And she sleeps
These were the days
She lay there, deep in rays
Her darkness, forever paid
They fight
And they bicker
Flickering like a light
On a decreasing wicker
He lies
He cheats
SHe cries
And she weeps
In those days of darkness
They found defeat.
