Help
Silence leaves an empty soul
Begging, crying, for an answer
But sadly, no answer comes

Darkness
The darkness corrupts my soul
Leaving just a black hole
Twirling, swirling, it never ends
The clock has stopped, the space bends
The stars and planets all align
Making such a simple line
Demons whisper sadistic lies
Evil, alone, the truth defies
No way to change, lost and drifted
Out of place, warped and twisted
My mind is gone, I'm slowly fading
My evil side comes through invading
Midnight comes, silent in mourning
The demon listens, the sadness luring
Optimism we try to avoid
All good things found destroyed
After this plague, none will remain
I will stand alone in pain
The darknes surrounds all that is me
Evil I speak, hear, and see
Only losing, never winning
Darkness is just the beginning

Abolish the Death Penalty
Help me right an injustice. We can not kill people for killing people to show that killing is wrong. How does that make sense. Everybody has a right to live. Help me enforce this right. We are teaching kids that violence is okay as long as you can say that the other person is wrong too. NO!!! We must right this wrong. Do you want a better future? Do you want a safer future? For you? For your kids? Then sign my petition!
The site is on the bottom of the page titled Anti Death Penalty Petition.
Help! Act! Petition!
