Destruction


Anger, you are so quick to decide my actions. 

You make it so easy for me to decide what to do. 

Red colors my vision with your help. 

You color the words and actions of others, 

Poisoning people's image. 

You cause my blood to run hot,

Filling me with your power. 

You cause my better judgement to dissipate. 

 

Anger, you filter my thoughts,

And leave only destruction. 

You create in me a loathing for my fellow man. 

My objective with your help is

To obliterate everything in my path. 

 

I will succeed. 

I will come out on top, 

If only to prove what you whisper in my ear: 

"You are better than her"

"You are more than just a girl"

"You have power over others"

"There is no other alternative"

"You must destroy!"

...And so I shall. 

 

I shall prevail, 

And destroy everything she once held dear. 

Your sister Hatred is not far behind, 

And with the help of you both, 

I

Will 

Destroy. 

 

My words sear into her like a burning blade. 

My sharp wit causes her to scream in pain

As I destroy whatever she had left in this world. 

Her goodness means nothing to me. 

Her hopes and dreams are like dust in the breeze

When compared to my might and power. 

I

Will

Destroy. 

 

With a final fiery blast, 

All of her will is burned up, 

And her tears melt a path thru her cheeks. 

She is my prize, 

And... 

I 

Will

Destroy.
