Image for the poem Hello

Hello

Hello, my name is resentment
We've met before
But you swear you've never known me

Pushing you closer to those words
You never thought you'd say aloud
Bow down and pray to the lord
Forgiveness means it's all allowed

Pulling you in, you can smell the hate
The undeniable anger at everything
You can never hope to change
Give them nothing...nothing

Drowning in the humbling river
Scratching for air, but he's never there
Losing to your own will
Suffer unto me, it's all I ask

Hello, my name is solitude
You've known me for too long
New faces, new names, same pain

Pushing you closer to that edge
Feel it slip and dig in too far
I'm just a voice inside your head
Telling you it'll be okay, but it'll scar

Pulling you in to wrap you in my arms
Without them you'll never cry again
Here, you'll stay safe and warm
You'll never hear from them and then

Drowning in the humbling river
Scratching for air, but she's never there
Losing to your own will
Suffer unto me, it's all I ask

Hello, my name is sabotage
You only whisper to me when no one's around
We both know you scratch for me

Pushing you closer to what's left to lose
You fought hard enough to get this far
But the joy of suffering is what you choose
Now let's get this over with, once more

Pulling it in, slam it to the floor
It's not over til there's nothing left to love
The walls can barely take anymore
Utter desolation dictates when it's enough

Drowning in the humbling river
Scratching at the dirt, sucking in the hope
Lose your will and close your eyes
Your suffering is done, come home
