The Self-Hatred Monster

The Self-Hatred Monster

A Poem by 송지석 / Ji-Suk

I am vulnerable and empty void
I’ve exchanged my bitter past for happiness
And that monster demands for more 
At times it puts a collar on my neck
To ruin and swallow me with self-hatred 

The hateful monster that you see is a part of me
my true self is fading away 
The loneliness that wraps around my neck like a noose until I can't breathe
My blurry tear-welled eyes can't see the light   
I'm struggling to just breathe again
Sorrow has created this monster

Please do not look for my hidden self.
I've thrown away my past and it has changed me
I am not the same so please stay away
I fear I will taint you because of the monster is inside of me

Inside I've been disturbed, my sanity was stolen away 
As time goes by, I feel like I’m turning into a monster

Excellent work.

Self loathing is a toxic son of a b***h and you expressed that perfectly I think.
