i
am the person
parents want their kids
to be someday.
at least
thats what they

wish
their kids to be.
but what they see
is only a cover because

i
am so much worse
than the straight A
hardworking athlete cover
that they see.
i have the sick mind that

could
easily think up
twisted forms of
torture and grusome deaths.
i would willingly think up
fifty different ways for
those parent's children to

die.
and, naturally,
i'd do it with
the sadistic smile
of a psychopath.
don't feel bad if you
were fooled by my cover
because you really
don't want to know
whats going through
my mind.

"At this moment, there are 6 billion, 4 hundred, 71 million, 8 hundred, 18 thousand, 6 hundred, 71 people in the world. Some are running scared.. some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day.. others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men at war with good, and some are good.. struggling with evil. 6 billion people in the world, 6 billion souls -- and sometimes.. all you need is 1."
