Analysis of Him



His words drip with sarcasm
     his heart full of hate
     his fakeness towards reality
     his behavior marks his fate.

He is always being negative
     his hate spreads far and wide
     his words are used as weapons
     he has caused a great divide.

His words he uses as daggers
      but I try to block them out
      tho most of the time that doesn't work
      to him i'm the enemy without a doubt.

He needs me to be the enemy
      because he can't handle what's true
      he loves to cause me pain and grief
      all the sadness he has put me thru.

He is a dark souled person
      he'll never let the happiness flow
      he'll never let the happiness win
      for his inside darkness will always show.
