"Things may happen. Good and bad, but you must keep moving forward. Don't stop and look back at the past. You may regret it. It could bring you more pain. Look at the present and everything will be okay in the end."

Drawn together

by fate herself.

Dragged through dirt

by dramatic people.

Damned as sinner

by masked saints.

Drowned in fears

by knights of hell.

Dangled in the sky

by hopes and dreams.

 

Torn to pieces 

by guilt and regret.

Torched at dusk

by hateful pride.

Terrized at home

by outside invaders.

Touched on our skin

by the cruelty of words.

Tangled in webbs

by the lies we told.
