Analysis of Your Loss, My Gain



Hate, Despair, Regret, and Sorrow.
I know now, there is no tomorrow.
Life has ruined me and so has society.
My life is not your responsibility.

You try to control me, you deceive me.
You are killing me, can you not see?
You have dealt me too much pain.
However, you will learn...
Your loss, my gain.

Your lives are damned to hell.
You lie far too well.
"You can't do anything right."
What a lie! I am forced to carry out YOUR decisions, alright?!

No more shall I listen to anyone.
No more shall I do unto everyone
As they will not do unto me.
Damn you all! You're all too heartless & selfish to see,
This pain & suffering caused by you, called "Misery".

Good luck getting into the "Promised Land."
It doesn't exist...
You're not allowed to enter due to your lies.
The only promise you will get is a dreadful good-bye.

I hate you, I hate society, I hate life.
If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have this strife.
You will regret...
Being born, regret treating me as you did.
Because you are going to love feeling miserable,
Feeling my hate, my anger, my misery, my pain, my sadness, my depression, my regret, my sorrow.
You will dread what you have done to raise my rage to a level unimaginable.
