Be careful


 

Be careful from everything,

Especially around people.

You can think to date the love of your life,

Just to have them hit you repeatedly.

You can be brought into this world!

Only to have your parents sream at you.

You can go to a new school,

Only to get bullied.

You can go to a party, and meet somebody.

Only to get raped.

Be careful around everything
