a selfish act
when it breakes,darkness fright
your eyes are awoken,though
not your might
and if you see another
with fate as yours
and the emotion
knocks at stiff doors
rocky to a long face
or what ever any case
it should be known
that you're a selfish actor
forgetting the breath giver
is never selfish
when smiles,or secret winks
have fallen on deaf glances
but a whinning tongue
grumbling mostly about nothing
frowning
and making stiff
than easing free
is all but folly
to the roundest face
who smiles sunshine
daily
and blossoms
spring
in the warmest chuckle
