I never knew hate (explosive)

I never knew hate before. I never knew how it could overshadow every other emotion. Over shadowing them all Reducing them, dulling them Until until until They were unrecognizable and unused. I never knew hate before. I never knew it had a taste Until someone mentioned your name And the vile bitter flavor Rose from my gut into my throat And it spilled out of my mouth As sarcasm and insults and pain I never knew hate before, I never knew it had a sound Until the pounding, pounding, pounding Of my heart told me so Until the words went Swirling Spinning Screeching Screaming In my head The same words over and over I hate him. I hate him i hate him I never knew hate before. Before I knew you. I never knew hate before. Before I knew you. I never knew hate before. Before I knew you.
