an anger that is poured onto the self
an insecurity which infects the mind
a reflexive state
both a cause and an effect
an inescapable feeling
a trap that we lay
in the face of the evidence
a lie we tell

a hopeless feeling
supported by no other
a dichotomous state
the in battling the out
a war of attrition
collateral damage to all
an external search
for a savior within
