That Evil
All
around me, feelings swirl
an
impenatrable fog of confusion.
Theres
no one emotion,
its
all there together.
Pain,
trouble, despair, hate
all
forming a cacoon around me.
Surrounding
me with distress,
filling
me with despair.
I
fight to break free,
but
it just pulls tigher.
It
forms stronger bonds to hold me better.
I
cry as I lift my head to the sky
begging
the ones up there for answers.
What
is the point of this life I lead?
Why
must I suffer so?
But
all I get in response is silence.
Is
there anyone up there to hear my plea?
Is
there anyone left who cares?
Where
are those made to help us?
I
count the tears as they fall from my eyes,
stream
down my face and hit the ground.
These
tears I cry, I dedicate to all.
All
those who have caused them,
all
those who have wished them fall.
YOUR
wish has finally come true,
my
spirit has finished breaking apart.
I
watch the smiles light up your faces,
through
the tears that drown mine.
Why
does my pain cause you such hapiness?
How
does my despair feed your joy?
Please,
explain this to me, its beyond my grasp.
How
can one persons cries cause such anothers smile?
How
can causing someones pain bring you joy?
What
fills your heart, turns it to lead?
What
evil corrupts your soul?
Is
it that same evil,
that
grows stronger with every tear that falls?
Is
it that same evil,
that
loves to see anger and hate?
How
do youy rid yourself of that evil?
Or
do you even try?
