why does he remain so dark?
why can he not see the light?
"pssst....stay away from that, he'll pull you down."
"people like that want attention."
is this an amusement park?
is this too real to be anything but your sick entertainment?
this is a human..,,
cryin,,,
demanded from .. ,
spent.,,,,
like used nuclear fuel rods rotting in "forever's " containment.
i try to smile
when i do feel the sun
no medicine can ease the feelings of human absence
nor the weight of laughs as they say, "hello?"
expect my worst
for the best you have never tried to stay and "watch"
for this "act" is through entertaining
the parts so easily seen by eyes that are half closed.
i am a being...
suffering...
isn't my pain a tribute to us lost souls you neglect?
from your questions?
this is what a soul gets, "staining."
