People tell you I’m

LOUD
People tell you I’m

Strong
People tell you I’m

Quick to Anger
People tell you I’m a

B****

But who tells you that I

Love Animals?
But who tells you I’d rather read than

Fight?
But who tells you that my Boiling Point

Doesn’t Exist?
But who tells you that my Friends and Family

mean more to me than

my OWN life?

No one tells you

For I am
Darkenss

For I am
Shadow

For I am
The Dark side of the Moon

For I am
NON-EXISTANT

&quot;Life is a journey not a destination...&quot;<br /> &quot;Perhaps our eyes need to be washed by our tears once in a while, so that we can see life in a clearer view again.&quot;<br /> &quot;Only those who will go too far, can possibly find out how far one can go&quot;
