I am the whisper of terror in your...

*no outsiders allowed inside
a lone rule breaking in
a no rule zone
nowhere to go in an open sea,

allowing hate and dishonesty to prosper unbarred.
We tempted fate, then saw cruelty's depth

Eight former champions.
Eight uncrowned atheles
Four officials.
Two championships
One purpose.

And very little did I know of or about him. But,
I learned a very valuable lesson from Darrel.

I was a part of a prayer meeting at our church,

I use to believe in love. 
If I loved a person deeply enough, 
if I put my all into them, 
sacrificed every inch just to bring them happiness -
Perhaps, I would one day wake up...
