This World is Trash

What I really think about this world....sorry for the angry post but I really need to get this out of my system.

The secret that I hid

Not all that well

I resent everyone

In my mind you're silly

Something I can't control

My feelings for you?

I'm the umbilical

You're nothing more

Than a stepping stone

A slammed shut door

Because in the end

Why even try to pretend?

You don't give a shit about me

Nor do I care at all for you

You're my way to justify

My means everyday

So I can look superior

In every single way

 

This will come across angry

Yet I don't really care

You saw the light 

Whereas I'm a dark knight

One full of ire

With no desire

Yet to rid this world

Of all the trash around me

Should I watch it burn?

This world at my feet?

Wouldn't that be neat?

To see everyone drown

Because Lord knows

I wish you weren't around 

 

Repression is the worst thing 

Yet I've done it for years

So why try and pretend?

That I don't really care

Hell, I don't, not at all

If you were to fall

I don't think I'd care

Not one bit at all

It sure is angry. Yet, in a strange way, I enjoyed reading it.
