Ode to Nicole

Life is such a delicate dance. I never even had a chance. Getting older, everyone is gone. Alone, I feel so alone. My friends left long ago. The streets are so unforgiving. I wish I knew another way of living. Weapons don’t scare me, people do. They use, abuse until they are done with you. Wild and free, a classic beauty. My flame’s so hot it burns me. Running so hard, I drew the death card. Trying to win a loosing fight. I won’t last another night. Hanging onto hope, at the end of my rope. With no place to go, ode to Nicole.
