Gangrene takes your leg—no healing.
Betrayal kills your soul, unfeeling.
Bow to lies—you’re lost, forsaken,
Walk with traitors—Hell’s your haven.

Cracked SOLES extorted
because third worlds must cry
YOURS are rubberized
In the zoo, where snakes are crawling,
Man has built a pyramid.
All is trapped in unseen walling,
Devils rule and keep it hid.

Mind and Honor—scarcely counted,
Men are beasts, brought down so low.
Lies are spewed, the world is founded
On deception. That’s the show.

All this time
I thought
We had more time...

I know I’m a disappointment—don’t say I’m not.
You gave me trust, and I let it rot.
I see it in your eyes, even when you smile,
That quiet hurt you’ve been hiding for a while.
You tell me it’s okay, but we both know the truth—
I’m the burden you carry, the bruise beneath the soothe.
I just wanted to make you proud,
but here I am—still failing you.
And in your silence—i fail myself too.

Thank you darkness,
For you have made it possible
To see the stars and moon
In the sky

Thank you darkness,
For without you
I would not have been able
To imagine the light
at the end of the tunnel
And so,
I would have no reason to keep walking towards it

Thank you darkness,
For you keep everyone
"In the dark"
And I wouldn't have it any other way
Because if we knew the future
There would be no point in having it
One of the best things, though misunderstood
