The love of yourself is ever so
danity and the experince of it all
when you fall who will help you
get up when all you care about
and love is yourself?

The ground will break
the snakes will crawl into
your brain and in the end
youl have to live with yourself


The real question is can you do this?
can you live with the people you ended
up hurting in your past? Will you have joy
in the tears you see them cry?

Will you even care if someone were to slit
their wrist? will you even shed a tear or will
you be to busy  admiring yourself

Fool me once shame on you.....Fool me twice shame on me.....

heavy poem and questions
and to this I answer this
to hurt someone is to hurt oneself
sometimes worse, for the guilt of harming
someone else can cause great pain and
stagnate growth...at least that is how I feel?

Good one!

This was painful to read. I hope this sadness leaves you soon. It is a shame for such a good poet to have such sad things to say.
