Neither the grin nor the scars.

By deadinsidesmileoutside

Bring out the worst in me.
There's no time.
I don't want this any more than you.
Suck out what's left of my soul.--
I sold it to the devil; he took it away.
Blame me, blame my actions.
I deserve it anyway.
The hypocrite - he smirks.
His grin never fades; so does my scars.
Kill me with a smile,
Like all the other times.

    Nice poem! The wait itself is more painful than what is to come I guess. Like a person on death row, the actual moment of suffering is very small compared to the agony of waiting for the day.
