Reality's Sting


In life there is

Pain

Hurt

And

Sorrow

Many dont know how to handle this pain

So they run

Why run from what is following you?

Dont you think it will catch up with you?

Running oly delays the

Inevitable

Where you are left waiting

Waiting to be devoured

Waiting to die

Why not stand?

Why not fight back?

You know you will Die one way or another

Why not Die defending what you love?
