Funeral Flowers

I lived my like and so I failed
From a gunshot shattered nail
Hither all to run and hide
And keep a date with suicide

Beauty walks with broken stride
Hammer knife through Beauty’s lie
Still alive but all too pale
Funeral flowers far too frail

Ripping open sewn lip seam
Like a prism rattled scream

damn... you may be the new first new person, in a looong time, to enter this society with something worth reading. The rhyme is what makes it. Doc

My god... I'm never - NEVER - this excited about a rhyme/structered poem. But this... This was something special. Beautifuly crafted couplets that just flow. FLOW. and your content was breathtaking. Welcome to DP. With a vengance.

*btw...I meant for the first line to be like..but I may just change it...life is rather nice in this place*

Just one piece of criticism and then I'll shut up. I could be wrong about this but I think you meant "Life" in the first line. Not "Like". Otherwise, this was perfect.
