She walked and worked the neighbourhood
Bent on revenge

He walked and worked a stage
Bent on himself

She used her own desires
To achieve her own desires

He used skills
To be his own desires

She never forgot
Her ability to damage

He never forgot
His ability to handle

Never did they forget

That revenge is tasted sweeter cold
Nor that emotion

Never grows cold

But only grows old

When nothing is left
To be sold

But emotion

That has made both

Old

If we're smart, Bodger,
we never stop learning...
or realizing that there is
always something new,
even in our little part
of the world.

we must stop and recondition our nature, otherwise, we stagnate our life as well as the lives of others....

i really enjoyed you're write. I think we never
actually learn to learn when to stop. We learn the lesson but is learning it really supposed to make us stop?

sometime one does learn, and does all to make things right. but the other does not allow it so it never changes

My spirit will rise
above the sea~
There will be no drowning
of my soul or me~
