MY WAY CAME NOT MY WAY
Appeasing
unlike
unlike beautiful things
appeasing
unlike
unlike beautiful occasions
appeasing
unlike
unlike beautiful knacks
appeasing
unlike
unlike beautiful thanks
appeasing
unlike
unlike beautiful knowhows
appeasing
unlike
unlike beautiful arsenals
not
to take my surprises
to grave
I was in a middle
of
placing my grave
placing my funeral
placing my body
the flower
or many
then I heard
'May you be left
behind.'
For
I have left
my grave
my funeral
my body (place)
simply behind.
