I Wholly Detest You
I wholly detest you
Within my mind and heart,
So often have I thought
To forever from you depart.
Spiteful memories haunt me,
Hurtful things to me you have brought
By and by, said and unsaid,
Every statement, look, and thought.
As each soft new moon passes,
Countless tears have been shed
Several doors have grown dents
Eternal wounds my heart bled.
It cannot be surpassed
The sense of dread that you tow –
And an ever-restless conscience
Never fails to drive Soul low.
The darkest shadows in my soul
For you I have solely reserved;
Ne'er a bitter collection of lies and deceit
Were ever felt so righteously deserved.
The utter contempt I hold for you
Cannot be seen more clearly –
And yet, I cannot remember,
Having ever loved so dearly.
