Two are watching
while one is down
on the ground bleeding
with no one near to help
If only they knew
what he had gone through
if only they knew what hurt he's succumbed to
He left that day
the day he was happy
happy he was happy
until it came
like a wave
consistent
punishing
without mercy each crashing time
He wished for a lighter feeling
where the weights on his shoulders aren't so heavy
he wished for better days
but they came very few and seldom
He couldn't will himself to let the people around him
really know
how he felt
They made him
uncomfortable
isolated
angry
and all out helpless
to their constant battering at his soul
His spirit once was strong & fierce
but they made it weak & fragile
pushed its limits too far without him shattering
into a million pieces
sharp and poisonous to them
but so clueless they were to his poison
that when they touched
they witnessed the unstoppable tears
Tears for the pain he was feeling
the poison becoming like the dna in him
changing who he is
who he was before their torture
that could never be removed
or scratched clean
from the body that was pure
yet not anymore since they've destroyed
everything happy
and left disaster.
