Stop Before You Break the Rules

Think what are you trying to do? Is it allowed?

Stop Before You Break the Rules

The line is drawn, a silent thread,

A whisper carved inside your head.

The air is still, the ground won’t sway,

Yet shadows shift along the way.

A glance, a step, a breath too loud,

The sky now wears a heavy cloud.

What once was safe now holds a weight,

A door half-closed, a ticking fate.

The rules are written, sharp and clear,

Each letter bold, each meaning near.

But dare you cross the silent line,

And watch the world no longer shine.

So halt your foot, restrain your will,

The quiet rules are watching still.

Clear as day or scramble like eggs

Stop means Stop not do it in dregs.
