Fix. Revive. Salve.

tell a lie if you have to
rest when you are not tired
these laws won’t break themselves
survive, that is how to live

you can’t hide from the pain
you’ll remember and be hurt
until you live to forget, and
remembrance does no harm

whether it’s the day before night
or the night before the day
both are wrong and right
you won’t be the first to cry
