Polar Opposite


Repulse is what I feel 

When I know she's near

She's the opposite of me, my other half.

 

She knows the world owes her;

The weight of her struggles constantly on her shoulders.

I say she's average, stop overreacting.

 

The hate stirring and bubbling in the pit of my stomach.

 

Constantly thinking her name is on the lips of others,

But it's all in her head, and she hurts those who love her.

Those who aren't on her side, are her enemies

 

My head pounding in rage, it's shedding my tears. 

How stupid could she possibly be?

 

It's so strange how her ego is bigger than herself.

Deep inside thinking that she’s better than everybody else,

But you're not fooling anyone, I know what you're hiding.

 

I don't blame her, she's just trying to survive.

 

Why haven't I confronted her, yet?

It won't matter, she'll always stay, I bet.

 

How can I get rid of her?

To finally erase my self-destructive anger.

She is a part of me.

 

The girl is me.
