~Make a wish, it's up to you, find the strength inside, and watch your dreams come true, you don't need a shooting star, the magic's right there in your heart, close your eyes, believe, and make a wish~ (yes it's from a song :D)

The Snake came up
And bit me
I did not know why
But it did

Its teeth in me
Wouldn't stop attacking
And the venom
Ran through my blood

The venom ignited fire
That boiled rage
And the rage did nothing
I grew helpless

Until Hatred took over
It killed my heart
It killed my soul
It killed the snake

We&#039;re all just looking for attention, to be discovered overnight. We&#039;re all frustrated by the popular ones that claim the limelight before they fall to pieces. So many of us are stuck under the radar--what makes me different? You decide!

Haha imagine if the snake and the speaker represented two people, like person A and person B. Then it would be like, person A did something bad to person B and wouldn't stop, so person B started to develop that rage and hate. 

I love this poem, it could be interpreted so many different ways!

&quot;People believe that if we really want to eliminate something, focus on that. How much sense does it make for us to give the particular problem all of the energy, as opposed to focusing on trust, love, living in abundance, education, or peace? -Un.

I love this. It shows how the snake attacked aimlessley. To kill, rather to kill one. It wasn't aiming for anyone in particular, just someone... great poem. Truthful.
