Is Feeling Hated over Rated?

Have you ever been ignored,

shunned abused scorned,

looks that stare and hurt,

ice cold eyes that say your dirt.

No friends or colleagues to share what's new,

alone on a corner feeling blue,

out on a limb with no one to hold,

feeling depressed unloved and so cold.

Thoughts like shadows tease and bite,

mixed emotions wrestle in the night,

laughter an echo of someone's smile,

wishes and dreams others defile.

Banished in hindsight loved by the few,

loathed by the strangers that try to hurt you,

shouting so loudly no one to hear,

hiding in shadows trembling with fear.

Solitary footsteps in the soil,

covered by dust intended to spoil,

nothing to show where you've been,

not even a memory others have seen.

Trying so hard to find some respite,

from the pain and the misery others delight,

but fighting back just torments me still,

my nerves become frayed making me ill.

This world of hatred that corrupts the soul,

motivated by greed takes it's toll,

riches in death you'll ne'er see,

like a fragile heart just trying to be.

Current affairs spits others views,

no joy in the world just constant bad news,

is this my life my reason to live,

everything's been taken nothing to give.

Left under a flagstone to be forgot,

your flesh like your memories destined to rot,

never to see another sun kissed dawn,

wondering why you ever was born.
