Her Hate

These dreams need to stop....

Her hateful screams fill my ears with pain

Her tears run down my heart like acid rain

Burning, twisting, poisoning the hand that helps

Tries to heal all the hurt, the uncalled for whelps

Breaking, trying, wishing to kill the violence

Hating everything that brings to this mournful silence

The pain spreads through my body, the anger tries to take

Fighting back with no resolve, for the girl's sake

She who holds the hurt of the world in her eyes

The one who every night, alone she cries

She thinks she's the one everyone should despise

Who wonders, plans, and thinks of her heart that dies

Every day with the hate that fills it, close to the top

Nothing anyone says could ever make this stop

Around her neck covering bruises left, a chain

Thick and heavy, enough to cause much pain

Now she holds up something, a little key

As if she knows something that I cannot see

Is it a chain to release the pain that she's holding?

Or to stifle the hate of the world so smoldering

I can only wish, or dream, or think as the scene shall fade

With on her lips there's a silent goodbye bade
