Hate's Final BreatheA Poem by therisaRemoving the destructive voices of my youth from my mind.
Voices echo
Off the recess of my skull Growing distorted With each passing reverb Until nothing remain Of the original sound. Yet I have taken And have incorporated them Into my own inner critic. Giving him An acid laced tongue Violently lash out At my soul With his anger And rage. Caring not What damage is done Only he can Do so. Would love to watch As he drowns In his own venom. Burning away Like he has done To me For so many years. Don’t like taking pleasure In other’s suffering But this time I can’t walk away From this. Need to know This is his final Breathe of hate. © 2010 therisaAuthor's Note
