Long Fronting Poems

This is dedicated
To that man who expresses love through hatred
I'm tryin' to make it clear that you leave scars everytime you say ""

Glad to have known you

All out victory, 
or embarrassing blunder,
Bi polar maybe,

There was a time when I knocked at Hell’s door
Didn’t think nothing about it just walked through and explored
Was introduced to a lot, saw a lot of people with smiling faces
