Tuna
Seems easy doesn't it?
Being raised into a life form
that fits perfectly into a society
made for a specific breed of human.
Being forced to keep breathing
or to have ever started.
I wasn't fit for this
I should have never been born
Seems easy doesn't it?
Being teased like this.
Given a life only to have it taken back from you.
Life is short.
Believe it or not; you will say it soon enough.
Seems easy doesn't it?
Just live and die
Simple as that
Let your skin shrivel
and your bones weaken.
Watch yourself decay
Seems easy doesn't it?
