Shining bright amid the morning sun mild rays,
The happy butterfly pure as white with tints of black
Now wings across the violet flowers beauty-struck.

What do we really know about
being fake?

Hard, rough hands beating

My mind in constant battle between right
And wrong
The devils pull overwhelmingly

My heart races and my skin
