1. Hate
"Hate comes from within."
say some wise men of old
"They were fools"
Hate does not come from within.
It is planted there
by the parasites
we welcome so lovingly.
The deeper we let them inside
the harder and deeper
they strike.
---
Hate will continue to reside.
Infesting. ( we cannot do anything)
Mutating. ( we are paralysed)
Consuming our insides. ( can no longer stop it )
The truth is at this point ( we no longer want to.)
---
We are fused with it,
pulling our hairs from the roots
leaving only the painful holes behind
as a grotesque resemblance
of what we look at
as ourselves.
---
We forget the person
we were supposed to despise.
Only are left with the hate.
"need it"
We start hating ourselves.
We love the non-duality,
wanting a non existent irony
and we start to ponder
our puny existence.
How unimportant & worthless
we are for the world, for anyone in that matter.
---
Although, some few of us
find a saviour
who pulls them back and
shows them the light out of their darkness
joy out of their sadness
relief out of their agony
and love out of their loneliness.
"And then they leave"
just as the ones who came before.
Inflicting wounds
and leaving scars much stronger.
---
"The cycle starts again"
and it keeps on going
until all you seek is
ignorance
to be shunned
forgotten
left alone
walked over.
Until all you seek is
madness.
