Inside the heart of a predator
Lives a little boy
Who once had Dreams
And Hopes
And Laughter
And
Love?
Someone once announced his birth,
Someone once threw a
Party in honor of his life, someone
Once told him good job!
Someone once must have
Cared?
(of course, I'm only assuming)
At what point did
The sweet, glowing, iridescent
Boy transform into the
Dark, murky, violent
Monster?
What childhood
Nightmare haunted
Him so terribly that it
Had the strength to
Relentlessly push him
Across the
Delicate threshold
From innocent to
Sociopath?
Or....was it just
Always
There?
We’ve all been
Dealt some unsavory
Cards in life.
Some of us use our
Unlucky hands as
Weapons of
Destruction.
Some of us use our
Unlucky hands as
Torches, lighting a
Path of Courage and Rebirth
For others to
Follow.
The predator uses his
Bad luck as a group
Of thugs protecting
His heart.
Yet, within his past
Lives the
Remedy for his
Darkest demons.
All he needs
Is the courage
To face it.
But, predators
Would rather stay
Hidden in the
Dark.
