A Thorn in My Heart
I heard another knock on the door,So I opened it again.I was met by the icy stare of the Reaper;So I proceeded to let him in. Death took a seat next to Lucifer,By Heartbreak and Deceit.Now that all the demons … Continue reading A Thorn in My Heart
I’m Transparent
I cry inside, when I see, The pain and suffering, That surrounds me. Why, do I have so many blessings, And they have so few? Oh–how I wish, I could help, But when I realize, I can’t do much– I … Continue reading I’m Transparent
