Never Again

Deep are the wounds they left me with.
Tearing at my soft flesh but not at my solid soul.
Shrewdness is in their laughter,
Malice is held in their eyes.
Spite is within their voices.
Surrounding me trying to break my spirit so that I shall once again be like them to hide in the shadows ,waiting for the next unsuspecting victim to walk into their midst.
To once again walk among them as if nothing had changed.
To feed on the fear and hatred of their victims.
Never again shall I be like them.
Never again shall I walk in the shadows searching for my next victim.
