excerpt from a letter to a loved one
Sometimes my chest is congested with so much sadness;
the only thing I can do is spit venom.
Mom, I'm sorry.
I apologize for using 'I hate you' as a weapon,
and you as a target;
using my loved ones as targets.
I don't think I am allowed to hate because I am sad.
