Theif of Joy
by XxXmysterBeautyXxX
Compare me to an animal
No, scratch that
An animal is too innocent
Bending to instinct
Compare me to a surgeon
No, scratch that
Beneath the selfish drive for fame and knowledge
There is a semblance of an honorable goal
Compare me to a warden
No, scratch that
Whatever I am to you
Cannot be something that contains, even farcically
There is nothing in me
That can contain you
That can be honorable
That can be innocent
So compare me then
To
Nothing
