Most people that say they are sorry when they apologize aren't even sorry for the hurt they put you through.
Most times, they just feel sorry for themselves
because they have to suffer from the pain too.
...They also know that it's going to be even harder trying to guilt you into forgiveness, than it was for them to cross the line in the first place.
He knows better than anyone
how necessary masks are.
Monsters cannot walk
in the broad daylight
without the disguise
of a charming, beautiful
human being.
I would never look down the barrel of my own gun
because I could never take my own life out like that.
Though lets say it were to be a crooks gun and your life on the line,
I would just have to take that bullet.
What ever is to come, You have more to live for than I do.

night child
She kisses her scars
Amongst the dark of the night,
For the taste of blood,
Or the taste of self-love?

She drank the tears she cried,
For the drowning sensation,
Or the hope of a better fate?

While she lay empty on the grey-tiled floors that felt like the bottom of a *** bottle,
She only wonders,
Would this change anything?

How many more wounded soldiers before the battle is dead?
How many more tradgic memories need to be burned into innocent minds?

How many more terrible poems before I get a better grasp on humanity?
Too many too count.
Listen to me drown,
Can you recognize that sound?
