"Life is not measured by the quantity of breaths we take, but rather by the moments that take our breath away." -Maya Angelou


To create evil,
You must have a mad mind.
Evil and good are what define people.
There is good in everyone,
But the evil always takes over.
It feeds on us,
Like flies crawling on a dead body.
It consumes us.
We become our worst nightmare.
The monsters from our childhood dreams.
We choose the path we take,
But the evil inside of us persuades us different.
Because of this, we are left feeling broken.
Like pieces of a fragile teacup that was just shattered.
Lying on the ground waiting to be swept up.
To be saved for the evil within us.
We wait for that someone to come,
But sometimes that never happens.
