Hate 5-25-06

Hate

It’s a terrible fate

But sometimes that’s all there is

Having felt it for so long

Never seeing the break of dawn

Locked up for years on end

Finally able to show my head

Creeping out of the cold cage

Trying to turn the next page

Of the dark life

Just lived

The light burns my pail skin

But not wanting to go back again

Having all that time to plan

Don’t take my hate

From my hand

It’s all I have had

But I will not pretend

Like it had never been

No!

This hate it lives

It’s an exultant friend

It never left me

In a bleak existence

At cruel fates hand

Like you did

So here hath comes

My revenge

Thy dearly hated old friend.
