lull

the world is

beautiful.

bland,

but secure.

your schedules

are flawless,

everything goes

to plan.

you ask,

you wait,

it's given.

but you know better.

you're on a rollercoaster,

nearing the peak.

you'll take the plunge,

and the ride will be over.

you'll sink

like you have lead in your pockets

into a lake bottom

covered in

tangly plants.

they'll snatch you,

and you'll drown.

good things

never last

because life is

a scale,

and it needs to be

balanced.

smile.

smile while you can.

because the worst

is yet to come.
