Closer so many are to torment, <br />They would rather smear to sleaze... <br />Anyone they regard as seeing life, <br />To be lived making attempts to be happy... <br />With a removing of burdens, <br />From their own shoulders to lift. <br />There are those who despise people like this. <br />Only to leave with a keeping buried deeper within, <br />A hidden dislike for themselves and not admitting it. <br /> <br />'I hate you! ' <br /> <br />I know. <br />You have been proving it for centuries.<br /><br />Lawrence S. Pertillar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/only-to-leave-with-a-keeping/
