'The Man Who Ate The Snake'

Quietly...
I'm screaming to rattle the spirit
Of oblivion.
Silently...

'Be Strong'

I'm not lost,
So please dont come looking for me...

Thus I can choose life for those around me.....

Astoundingly,

But they cut my arms off at the shoulder
So every night would grow colder
As, all alone, i slowly grow older.
