The Shattered Soul

by Gwylly ~ Pisces ~ - Not entered

They laugh at me, torture my soul, and laugh
I ask for Love, they chortle, and say
You are the one we chose to show the truth
I weep, they smirk, and taunt
You are the one who we punish
Why? I wail, they roar with laughter
So the rest see us as celestial
At that moment it snapped
Their laughter slowed, and watch, curious
I smile, a smile of undefined wrath, rage
They frown, seeing something yet unseen
I will my soul, my window, to shatter
All that is left is hate
With it I pick up the shards of my life
For the first time, I can see them
I am now one of them
The hate hardened shards are sharp
With my hate I implant the shards
How easily the slide into my new comrades
In a wink, all is gone, everything, nothing
I take the final shard, and to God it all goes
I am born again as a spirit
Only love do I show
But in the corners, evil does grow
I realize my mistake to late
I am the true monster
I am the one who they tried to keep down
I am not good, I am the nothingness in us all
Growing, slowly growing, I am seen in all eyes
Fear my word, I am what you call Love

Reason for writing:

    Well, I Have never really written poetry, as you can probably see, but when I wrote this I was in terrible anger, confusion, and fear.  The reason for those fealings are mine to keep, but when I get in one of those moods I have to do something to cool down, and I decided this time to write a poem.  Please send comments to me as to how you did or didn't like it.  Do not be afraid to send remarks on how badly you disliked it, because that is pretty much what I expect, so...  Thank you for taking the time to read this.
