reality

can i tell that you're not one
to trifle with?
to stifle with?
weak & meek & always failing.
not as an individual,
not as a human being,
but as that fit into me.

personal coldness is honesty born without mercy.
the past has given me reasons to believe that mercy leads to hope,
& hope leads to misunderstandings.
i do not offer hope.
i offer reality.
