Void Sentences
Without the sun there is no death
Without love there is no life
Without life there is no pain
Joy comes before sorrow
Or what use is it
Today breaks hearts for tomorrow
The future is just a pit
For yesterday and today
Only lovers get broken hearts
Only dreamers lose hope
Only adventurers are ever lost
Only fire brings smoke
Jesus needed a cross to pay the cost
I need a flask of words today
To drown the bleeding sore of the past.
