Disgust

By FlowMyTears

To be one who writes is to be
one who rubs a steam covered mirror,
and sometimes all you see are more
layers of filth.

Those kids:
they fall in love with their own suffering.

Nicotine stains do not cause cancer,
only the dogged wish to seal one's own fate.

"Only the strong are ready to die"

-Phillip Morris (TM)

The last line really struck a chord with me. I think a lot of us donâ€™t know who we would be without suffering, so we do fall in love with it in a way. It becomes a comfort, I think. Lovely, honest write.
