How can one boy

have so much anger in him?

It has to come from somewhere, hidden in time.

So much hatred and poison spewing forth. He must be hurting very much inside.

He's so young, so very young. Everything seems hunky-dory on the outside. He's all smiley, mild-mannered, even pleasant to everyone.

Somewhere else in his mind, at the same time, he's wishing death to the people he hates.

This is the youth of today.

This is him, crying out for help, but at the same time making sure you don't get to come close enough to do so.

It's 'please help me, but stay the eff away'.

How, God, do we do this? There's only You.
