I hope the energy you spend on trying to destroy me brings you peace.
Peace of mind - a kind of calm that will wash over you if you realize that you're breaking me down.
I know first hand destruction can be beautiful,
the tearing down of a statue,
the breaking of a wall,
smashing a glass against a wall.

Destroy to create I guess...
I guess I just always thought destroying a human was a little bit messier because we don't break with one definitive sound, we kind of shatter. Our smiles falter,
we choke back tears till our throats burn,
we bite our nails till we bleed,
we bleed so that we can keep feeling.
Breaking a human is a process that I guess you're skilled in my friend.
And it's kind of a Godless business.
To destroy to create
but I find God in my tears and you in my memories
and happiness in the day time and laughter in my mind.
So please- keep destroying me because you're helping me grow even though it's painful and in return I pray it brings you peace - hurting me. I pray you find peace
because God knows you've become restless,
absorbed entirely by vengeance,
an emotion I'm too exhausted to entertain.

I hope you're happy my friend.
