Why?



How can you sit there and judge me? I have only done the remarkable.
I cheated death, I've given life.  and yet.... it does nothing but anger you.
turn up your nose all you want. i will not yield, and i will not bow. i shall stand up and face reality.
you are nothing and will always be nothing.
but why?
