I can only love if I was loved.
Only care if I was cared.
They pushed, they shoved
I grew up, scared.
I hid in the shadows,
I memorized poverty.
Guided by the dark,
I forgot the language of beauty.
I stole food,
I drank dirt,
My skin turned cardboard,
My eyes leaked dry tears.
I slept to a dream,
And woke up to a nightmare..
And then I became the nightmare
I gave them their share; of pain.
I drove them insane.
I quenched my thirst in blood,
Brought in floods.
They speak of me, a monster,
A loss of life and limb,
The taker of sweet uncharted innocence.
But they don't realize.
That I am no demon, I am no sword,
I am human,
In It's Everlasting Form.
