Before I start, i’m going to have to tell everyone with a perfect life to leave,

because the things that i’m about to say could cause some not to believe.

But they could cause others to shut their mouths, open their ears and receive.

I say this to warn you about the pain that you will see leap from my mouth.

But first that has to be constructed by my lips.

But even before that it has to be soaked in the hatred of my tongue,

but not only that but before it even hits my tongue it has to be conjured up by my throat.

But even though it has to go through all of that, in the beginning in the very beginning,

it has to take a ride, on this reckless train of thoughts of mine.

When those word do; they will not see only the present me,they will see the me that has withered away in the past.

And in such a small amount of time those words will experience so much pain,

that they will say

“I am done… Just spew me out so that we can no longer be one

and I say this to remind everyone.

That, the words that i’m about to speak, will sound like sirens in your ears, and they will make you visualize some of your outmost deepest fears.

So I tell you again if you have a perfect life please leave,

because you will not understand any of the words that I am about to speak.
