Self Destruction

Oh how the hate reverberates through my being,
Such evil in my pure forgotten eyes.
Delve deep and feel the evil suck you in,
My brain denying all forms of promise,
My soul destroying all that you can give.
Why oh why - distrust my only alliance
And where footsteps tread - I feel your paranoia,
Seeping into me - a stain of mistrust and fear.
Dictate your poison - make me,
Streak asbestos through me.
Deservedly I take it.  Deservedly forsake it
Throw me no line, no hope, no desire to be free.
I am but a shadow of myself,
Loosing ever deeper to the beast chained inside.
Don’t feel sorry for me - I shall reap what I have sewn
And evermore shall dance with my own shadow only
And wonder how did this come to be?
Hate and evil - from the dormant volcano
That is me and my honesty.

    I love this.
    There is so much emotion and thought put into this.
    I would like to ask your permission to put this in a book I am creating.
    You WILL be created, as will everyone else who is putting work into my book.

    A lot of feeling in this poem. The only way out of negative thoughts is to replace them one at a time by positive thoughts. Perhaps by going to uplifting movies or walking in nature, etc. may help, too. It is hard, but can be done. There is medicine to help those in dire need.

    There are good and evil thoughts in all people. The good will remain when the evil is let go. If analyzed, evil is really a fear in some form, a false fear. We all have these fears. It's part of the human experience.

    Everything is either love or a call for love.

      That's true, sometimes though it can be so overwhelming. Think I felt like this when I wrote it. Thanks for your insightful comment.
