My hands are still red
From the days before
When i was the beast
That i have learned to hate
When i was hard, cold, and final.
Unto you met your fate.
I lived life without living
Having no friends but, then
When you don't belong and don't
Hear nature's song
It takes awhile to regret the pass
with no ties to the present.
But how long will I last?
And the bloody hands come clean.

A very brooding piece here. But nicely done. I wonder what the beast is? I can't figure it out. Maybe the depths of the evil in us erupting out at a moment unforseen?

boy you need to check out of the hell from time to time. LOL. Good piece. Confusing a little, but good.

Very expressive piece. I get the impression of lack of hope, but perhaps I am just putting my thoughts within your words. I have to agree that what the 'beast' is remains very elusive, which may be what you want or were trying to do. Wonderful write.

this piece goes through like living but not living being cold all your life then one day u figure out that your gonna die and you want to better your life.

if that makes any sense
