Nature of an untouchable

By Zander Janzen van Rensburg on Unsplash

Water can be vanquished by fire,
The sun will blot in the dark
But to love one with self-hatred
Is to hand one’s arm to a shark.

It’s not a curse to not have confidence
Or to hide your true self in the dark
But to love one with self-hatred
Is to hand one’s arm to a shark.
