but then they call you hero
and you sigh and shake your head
Twisted Poet Feb 26
they call you a patriot
and brand death between yours brows.
you smile and sing for them.

this is how it ends....
not with a bang
but a whimper,
and the ringing of cruel cruel laughter.
Twisted Poet Feb 26
you carry your fathers hand me down rage
its two sizes to big
and everyone can see it doesn't fit you

"what did they do?"
"nothing good his puppets were not supposed to live after the war"
Twisted Poet Feb 26
A dog that weeps after it kills
is no better than a dog that doesn't

my guilt will not purify me

i think you deserve a soft epilogue,
my love.
you are a good person
and  you've suffered enough.
