Apocalypse Examined

the city looks abandoned but you know better than to assume danger is everywhere and after awhile you grew attune the people who make the same msitake twice, they die one of the only outcomes that isn't surrounded by grey lines fake lies warp and make minds shake and break like bats on brake lights shame hides inside pained eyes your poor brain's tried then the flame dies but if you give up now this long fight was worthless pissed you curse it sift and search for purpose but in the end you come up with nothing more than filthy hands while the ties of fate fray into silky strands the only thing you actually see in the mirror is a chilling glance decieved by the little white lies your feelings grant cause real truth is harsh, it's like a punctured heart it just keeps gushing blood till the blood's to sparce you're bled dry then hung up as trophy so every passer by can stop and examine you closely ~Rolphy
