Not the Person I Am

I see RED; Blood RED,
That’s all my eyes will
Allow me to see…
This is not the person I am, for
The person I’ve become,
IS NOT ME!!!
Have I not suffered enough for
All my mistakes?
Have I not paid my dues for the 
Things I’ve done wrong?
Every second of everyday…
I wish I wasn’t human, for then me
Wouldn’t have made all of
Those awful mistakes!
