The Flipside

Your words ring of poison
An there's hatred in the air
Only you know your background
But i'm sure no one did care

Your opinion is tainted
An a different point of view
The intensity of your words
Reflects broken images of you

Broken from the past
A childhood so severe
That nothing ever lasts
An love was never near

Or is it that you run
With the futuristic pack
Where there is strength in numbers
But alone....you are slack

You sit in devils garden
With hate on your side
An use your mouth aggresively
An mistake it for pride

You are what you are
An i'll accept that fact
But disrespect an ignorance
Is not good tact

But that doesnt bother you
For your life is a haze
An everyone around you
Just puppets in the maze

I hope one day you will see
The good side of life
An treat it with tenderness
To keep you out of strife
