Image description

White handwriting on a black page. The text reads: 'Protect your Peace / all the receiving of / power, so temporary / all the receiving of cowards / unwillingly. Running into / the fire fulfilling me. / Running until the knife / hurts its killing me / little pieces that reach / out fitting. Words nasty / and choked out so witty / What is life but a joke / now? So shitty. / Destroy Yourself.'
