Two Ways of Getting There
He tried to be good to the point of exhaustion,
left unmanaged,
became irritation,
became paranoia,
became hatred.
Lived only for himself,
completely unashamed,
made a joke of everything.
Sarcasm to the point of exhaustion.
Misunderstanding became irritation,
became paranoia,
became hatred.
