Ugly Heart



Your ugly heart began your journey started,
On a path you determined...
Would destroy and upset,
Where and how I live.
You know nothing about.

I am no rumor to humor,
Lies told to amuse your lack of self esteem.
Or believe me to be the one perfect to use,
As a duped to fool player,
In a game to trick and treat to have it seem...
Others to believe the same as you do.

I don't know where you got your 'info' from.
Or knew you to be that dumb.
To welcome stupidity on your own to do done.
And yet I wish you only the best.
Since your ugliness to have is yours.
Needing no one else to confess or express,
That some who are told,
To keep heard to hear to themselves...
Can not wait to address,
The hope of being approved and accepted.
By...
Professional jerks once to have been morons.
And recently promoted idiots.
Who too have ugly hearts that are aging.

Although recruit they do to prove,
The popularity of wickedness and evil meant...
Is not a come to go passing fad!
Some wear this as if a badge of honor.
On their chest.
And...
As close to the heart as ugliness can get!
