An Ugly Soul, A Poem



A body submerged in anger
A soul teeming with hate
A head with thoughts so ugly
A virulent storm unwilling to abate

Why has this beating heart
Become so bitterly cold
Why has the kind spirit decayed
Why is the goodness rotting with mold

The warmth that once persisted
Evaporated with all of life's good
Replaced with such intense hatred
Unable to understand or be understood

Loving others seems improbable
Loving self is impossible
When did one become despicable
In this world so unpredictable
