 the world

       has become

 so

      ugly.

 and i know

              that

   there exist

                         beautiful people;

  beautiful people,

          with meek voices

  and gentle hands,

                       waiting out there

somewhere,

     for more of their kind

                       to come in

        from the storm.

   and maybe i'm too calloused

                               from all this.

          too calloused

                          to lay my head

      with beautiful,

 meek voiced,

        gentle-handed

                        people.

 but still

           i hope to one day find them.

                                      but

                        until then,

  the world

       has become

 so

      ugly.
