No where else to go

Still grinding your teeth at that?
Still letting pain consume your heart?
Still not forgiving because it hurts so nicely to hate?
Still not sleeping because the ‘cancer’ in you can’t wait?
Still not eating because it helps the hurt to starve?
Still not laughing because the scowl has set so hard?
Still not thinking because reason requires thought?
Still not listening to sense because it’s a route to finding love and peace?
Still not talking because shouting lets the hate release?
Still not happy because hating consumes your soul?
Still not looking past colours to see the light?
Still beating walls and floors with all your might?
Still no progress, no love, no person in your life to make a home?
Still a racist, a thug, a moron with no where else to go?
