Hate

I despise all this chaos
Inside, outside, all around me
Swirling like an angry hurricane tossing me around every which way.
I’m tired of this hurt
Consuming me
Eating me alive so there’s nothing left.
I hate this insanity
Attacking everyone on the outside
Unaware of this storm inside.
I loathe this constant battle that is me
Shooting me down wherever I turn.

When will this war ever end?
