A life of innocence and shattered dreams.
Of a broken heart and sorrowful screams.
Of knowing his father's head is not right.
Of unadulterated hatred surviving the night.
A room full of tension, masked with a cloud of smoke.
Of a child, bruised and beaten for laughing and making a joke.
Of sullen faces , never free from crying eyes.
Of a hopeful mother, pleading and praying to the skies.
A city full of grudges and insurmountable mistakes.
Of naive youths who choose the wrong fate.
Of innumerable addicts, indulging to escape.
Of a child's fragile mind, left there battered and *****.
A teen, full of potential
Striving for the best.
Who worked so long
And fought so hard
With no opportunity for rest.
Who faked being happy
And smiled through the pain.
Who remained cool and collected
While on the brink of going insane.
A man who never took initiative
And lives with unfulfilled dreams.
Who finally comes to realize
The world is never what it seems.
Who once had such aspirations
And sought to stand straight and tall.
Who looks back on his mundane life
And his mind begins to fall.
A man full of hatred
And violent despair.
Who never experienced love.
It simply wasn't there.
Who watched as years went by,
Contemplating life he was appalled.
Who never amounted to anything.
He won't be remembered at all.
