Powerless to Hate

You tear me at times

I try to run away

you fill me with rage

you turn to ashes all my smiles

make all meaning cease to exist

crumble my castle even as I build

...you make the world disappear in a haze

till all i see is red

all the colours distorted

all the joy swallowed

you make my heart beat so fast

my body clenched

my temples throbbing

you make me repeat your name

even as I turn to run

You know where to follow me

in my most secret place
