THE BEAST IN ME

 

 I tried in taming it 

subduing his will and power 

but it’s reflection troubles me 

it’s vastness I dread the most 

It’s rage and anger fills my heart 

often times propping to burst out 

the slightest outburst of anger you see me do 

is a huge conflagration deep inside

this beast wants to consume me 

wants to posses my soul unhindered 

I need me to be fully strong 

hence, I lose my world in the process 

I mentally duel with it day and night 

constantly sweat while the battle is on 

why choose me as your honorable host?

just let me be, you ain’t part of my goal 

when others are making merry, I am blue 

soliloquizing in battle mode

please forgive me friends when you see me in rage 

it’s not me, I am on a hot plate  

this beast wants to posses my soul 

deaden me and use my body as host 

that won’t happen anytime soon 

I’m having a good fight cause I own this breathe
