Desiring More Aches

On a never ending quest,
To validate their negativity.
They are out there and scouting,
For new recruits.
To soothe their own insecurities.
And on pursuit to undo happiness too!

The moan and gripers with their complaints.
As if worshipping an evilness,
Within them.
And having no restraint.

Mention the goodness that life affords...
And they are quick to see the opposite,
With a welcoming of this inside their doors.
They will ignore anything positive said.
And still say it is God...
They pray to instead.

Yet ever pain they feel is wished to be shared...
With anyone who will listen,
Desiring more aches...
To carry in their heads.
