Weak, vulnerable. Ugly, undesirable. Lazy, unmotivated. These swirling thoughts of hatred. Gripping me tightly, along with these memories, Getting the best of me, Showing no sympathy. I hold my head in my hands, desperately, Begging for the chaos to come to an end. You try to help; you try to step in. It's of no use; these voices will win. There's one of you and hundreds of them. Still you insist on protecting; you want to defend. It is like a tornado in my mind. If you think you can change that, You must be blind.
