Ahhhh how can one make someone feel like this?
On the top of the world, but also buried beneath it?
Cherished, but crushed?
How can someone do so much damage, without even touching them?
The Queen, or a peasant?
Cared for or used and abused?
How can good really overcome evil?
Love, truth, and justice against lies, deceit, and wrongdoing?
Is it true evil and death will always win over good and life, no matter how much you fight?
Joy crushed by anger.
Love conquered by lust.
Peace abolished by truth.
Excitement buried by fear.
Beauty destroyed by people.
Every. Good. Thing. Has an Evil. To Fight. It.
So yes, there is good. But there is also evil.
And from what I've seen, evil always seems to trump good.
At least until we're all gone.
