I've had the gun to my head for far too long
Why do you want to know what's wrong?
There's a reason I'm still here
I have my motives for bringing you near
Dishonesty's Unquechable lust
can't wait to capture all your trust
Beg me to put my pistol down.
Tell me why I should stick around.
I want you to think you can be of aid.
Come to me! Don't run away
Ill be Quicker to point my weapon at you
Just to see the damage I can do.

A bit disturbing.
Well, that's a matter of opinion. One can argue that most art is disturbing, but isn't that the point? To make you think, to elicit a reaction? I love to explore themes of betrayal, religion, the macabre, monsters, demons, and anything that wants you dead. That being said, it's art. Sorry to go on a rant lol, but I get this response often. I take it as a compliment. If people didn't appreciate the "disturbed", then authors like Edgar Allan Poe wouldn't have their work used for literary education all over the world.
Calm down, Wackyheartache4, lol. It's totally a compliment. I dig dark. I read dark, listen to dark, write some dark. Most of my fave authors are dark. Write on.
