Me
Increasingly isolated amid dreadful psychological scenery
Socially discarded and culturally abused
Exasperated loneliness coupled with vengeful anger
against those deemed the unapologetic perpetrators
Lacerations upon the mind
beginning to become infected
Irreparably scarring perspective
as well as poisoning the stream of consciousness
Stagnant and listless
despite writhing in existential pain
May as well be catatonic
when inaction becomes the only response
Healing requires painful recognition
Not the acknowledgment that society is the aggressor
But the assessment that I am my greatest detriment
And that I projected my depravity onto others who were innocent of such egregious allegations
