Squad Rules

cornered by my own haunted gaze
no exit
the only way out is through
the only way to feel is with your heart

the heart doesn’t know what it wants

but the endgame is
no end
the only real choice to make is
how do i keep playing when
i don’t have the strength to move?

the only way through is
out & out deception
a trick you play
on your own heart

no dice
no exit
