Because by then, I would have known how the words I spat at them would seep through their ears and down their spinal cord and somehow, eventually reach their heart where its poison would slowly **** them Because by then, I would have known how much they try even if they have had *** they did not believe in god they lost hope in humanity they were not democrats Because by then, I would have known how it takes every ******* muscle in their tired bodies to not bring out a gun in a room full of people they saw at school every day or how they would rather let their anxiety or depression take them away Because by then, I would have known how I was not the only one working or trying to love when the reason they had lost all hope in that meaningless world in the first place was me Because by then, I would have known that I cannot expect somebody to love me when I myself am unable to love them
