Hate
An emotion so draining; an emotion all consuming
Constantly on the edge of a black abyss
A dead weight that pulls you down
Makes you blind to other emotions, alone in the darkness
It’s such a waste of both energy and time
You’re carrying much more than you should
It's all you think of, the basis of your plan
to get revenge, and you’d make it hurt if you could
If you’d stop and think about it, you’d see the truth,
but you’re so consumed by vengeance, you’ll never see
It’s taken me years, until at last I realized
Hatred is a dead-end, that takes away from me
