Health Care | Anya Verhausen

how damaged do you have to be
to want to deny people health care?

who hurt you so much in your past
that you have to hurt others?

why do you only feel better when
you’re damaging other people?

who told you greed and lust for power
was a good character trait?

why do you believe in horrible things
while pretending to be pious?

when will you stop hurting other people
just so you can feel better for a moment?

why don’t you just look inside for once
and fix all your wretched bile?

I Hate You So Much | Lindsey Cartwright

i hate you so much
you destroyed my life
and you couldn’t care less

i get sick when i think of you
living your life as if
nothing happened

you’ll never pay for what you did
you’ve never had to before
arrogant to the core

you’ve left all your victims behind
damaged and hurting
picking up the pieces

my revenge is that i will survive
i will let go of the hate
and forget you completely
