Witches Brew

With your eyes full of hate
As venom drips from your fangs,
Your pores oozing contempt
While anger courses through your veins

A putrid cloud of malevolence
Surrounds your blackened heart,
While animosity and revenge
Rips your sanity apart

Your mind has been poisoned
And your spirit subverted,
By the slow death of your soul
Which you could have averted

You chose to consume
The evil and hate,
Eating every rancid morsel
Served to you on that plate

You wash it all down
With that liquid you hold dear,
As you continue to drown
In your own misery and fear

This sickness has destroyed
Everything you held true,
You’ve traded your life
For that foul witches brew.

Unable to see
Past the darkness and lies,
Even deaf now to hear
Your soul’s pleadings and cries

Unsuccessfully you try
To wash it away,
As you drink from that bottle
Day after day  

I pray for your soul
And the torment you face,
But the truth about yourself
Can never be erased
