Lusting beast, he'll never love again.

Dear John My Happy Place

But sat there broken hearted.

He Has a Death Wish
He did so many pain killers that should have killed a normal man

Intensely personal questions people ask
For these shreds to pieces what is truly me

Shikata Ga Nai
Pervasive personal questions people ask,
shredding to shards what truly is me.
