YOU



Everything starts with YOU.
And when I say YOU, I think it in red,
As you are the nightmare
I can't put to bed.
Everything happened  
When you played with the locks
And opened the lid,
On that Pandora s box.
You are vile   
SELF-ABSORBED SELF OBSESSED
Your evil personified
Devil possessed.
You ripped out souls,
Stamped on hearts
Your actions destroyed
And tore lives apart.
A ripple effect,
A cascade of pain
Changing Generations
For your selfish gain
