Climb the highest mountain, punch the face of god

Inutile

I hate the feeling of uselessness,
The way it sits in my soul
And eats a hole in my heart.

The way it smothers me in my wake.

I hate the way it looms over the threshold,
I hate how it pounces on me,
Holds me down like a lead weight.

I hate the way it covers me,
Swallows the whole of me, including my aura.

I hate how I can't shake it off me.

I hate how it absorbs.
I hate what it absorbs.

It even has a smell to me,
A taste,
A gritty texture.

It even stains the walls of my mind

And,

It affects me a little too profoundly.
