This cannot be true
Such darkness, such depravity
and no remorse
I can hardly watch, but I do
Shutting it out would dishonor the victims
You smile as you recount your misdeeds
You dare to justify such cruelty
Your justifications are fantastical
But you cling to them, you repeat them, you make others believe
You have to, in order to continue to live with what you have done
I know you face hardships
Your journey has been painful
But, should the innocent pay the price?
You acknowledge you have wronged many
You can hardly remember the number you have harmed
You say you would kill, if anyone ever repeated your acts on those you love
Yet, it continues
You are now a slave to a horrifying habit
and the victims pile up
The stench is great
You have harmed too many
with no remorse
Something must change
The world cannot handle such evil
The innocent continue to scream out for justice
Their stories are being told
Hearts are pricked
Change is on the horizon
Please Repent
