Beautiful, Bittersweet

A heart of stone
A vacant stare
No empathy
No love to spare
A life lived on
The edge of crime
Devoid of conscience
Lost in time.

With charm and wit
A master of lies
Deceiving all
With practiced guise
A life of pleasure
Without care
Leaving chaos and pain
Everywhere.

No guilt
No shame
No remorse
A soulless being
Without course
Living for
The thrill of the game
Leaving behind
A trail of shame.

This anomaly
A puzzle
An enigma
A mystery
A life lived on
The fringes of society
With no regard
For others' propriety.
