On the outside
He appears quite sane
A little shy
A little lonely
But otherwise immune to pain
Being generally ignored
By others
Has made him lead
A purely theoretical life
But his psychopathic nightmares
Have a dark internal meaning
Underneath the surface
A trigger happy
Pistol junkie
Waits, gun in hand

It's scarry, how accurate that poem is. Shows warning of something that happens too often. Shows how fake an appearence can be, when other's scorn at originality.
