Everyone

Everyone is a narcissist

Everyone is anxious 

Everyone is broken

Some can't take it 

Some can't stand it

Some lash out 

Some survive the brutal battering that our system gives out at such a young age

Some drown in their own blood as the system batters away 

Some feel hate to others yet they keep quiet 

Some whish not to exist 

Yet all feel the paranoia and trauma even when they grow older, having nightmares of their past

Yet all eventually fall as the system batters away

BEAUTIFUL! The intricacy of the thoughts that this poem is trying to convey is so beautifully knitted that I am struck. Loved it!
