Inside

The pure raw strength drew out from me
in the most vile of ways 
a scream came out and was only the key
to a string of disasters that would cause dismay

The scream fostered into strength 
and as I raised my fist ready for fight
I realized this would cause pain of more length
and so I stowed away to the darkest night 

The thought wrenched my mind with terrible might
that I was willing to hurt someone out of anger
and my mind convinced me I was not worthy of light
it was my shame that created a closed chamber

And so I convinced myself I was a monster
one that would make the world fear
and that for this there was no cure 
everyday I could see my faults in the mirror

In this chamber of my mind I hide
hoping that no one will see my monster inside

  1. This is awesome!! I really love your choice of words, I feel they have some sort of double meaning. It made me think of the negativity we each have inside of us, and the power of our minds.

    Excellent! :-)
