Whirlwind

In darkness, I live

In darkness, I feed

upon death and ugliness

I swallow the burden

Shatter the walls

Chop the sickly trees

Unearth the sadness

Allow yourself

to see and hear

You caused your blind,

deaf state of affairs

Whirlwind of displeasure

Disguise it sure

but you cannot extinguish it

Better to let it pick you up

In finding yourself

you find the truth

Truth can hurt

When you’ve found yourself

you may dislike the ugliness within

No matter how you

distort

it will not leave.

Deal.
