Hate

I always find myself consumed with hate,
whether it's directed outward, inward or at nothing at all.
It burns so fiercely that I find myself short of breath,
and it gradually builds up, slowly steering me to madness,

At all times there is always someone I hate
I don't know why but it seems like fate,
I've loved, I've grieved, I've feared and I've trusted
but no other emotion plagues me as much as hatred.
And even though seeing others consumed by it can fill one up with glee,
I always secretly fear for those who trigger it in me.

Hypocrisy

To act out of character,
      to act in order to please.
To preach about good nature,
      and do wrong while no one sees.

I lies within us all,
      softly beckoning us to fall.
Whether out of pride, secrecy,
      or just for the rush.
That inner demon will awaken,
      without much of a fuss.
And though some try to fight,
      seeing it as their duty to at least try.
We all eventually give in,
      sometimes with just a little white lie.

Friends

The story of friendship is a common tale told in many different ways but lately I've run in a bit of controversy in my own life. I heard a quote once that talked about people embracing the differences in each other and not trying to make everyone conform to their own ways of life. I considered myself a firm believer in this until recently.
       Sometimes no matter how much you try and delude yourself by thinking that you can embrace anyone despite your differences in age, style and senses of humor its just not possible. As politically incorrect as it might seem, the only people you can truly enjoy and cherish in your life are those who you share many similarities with. Someone who can complete your sentences and laugh when you do and not people with whom you constantly battle with concerning what to do and who constantly annoy you with their views on certain subjects.

        Of course all this is just my personal opinion, but its something I've come to believe in after a series of recurring events............I guess i'll still have to leave the idea open and look more into it though.
