The world as it's become
January 10, 2013
It spreads like fire
throughout the soul.
The pain rips you apart,
takes all you were before
and leaves you with nothing
It takes control
of all your senses.
Shreds your inner core
and you are left
with the shell
of what you used to be.
It hurts.
The word is spat with anger.
There is no cure
for this horrid beast.
We must
find a way
to defeat this.
But to do
that hard task,
we need willpower,
strength and determination.
Fear is just a state of mind
which we must overcome.
