Warning Signs
Paying attention to bad intentions.
Is it the comraderie in sin or a feeling from deeper within?
Don’t take warnings as challenges.
Turn your own pages.
We all have broken stages.
Let’s find connection in trauma.
Play in to my drama.
I can be your karma
Or I can be your savior.
But you can’t save her.
Peel back another layer.
Let me see your fear.
Know I won’t always be here
And I’m not always sincere.
Why not use pain to our advantage?
Wrapped up in one pitiless package.
Smiling, knowing they can’t handle this.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
