Rage
Awoken a slap stings my face. Rage heats my body. Crimson blood runs through my veins inside my brain. Burning my face. I see scarlet snake skin orange, yellow fire blue veins mark the highways like a map -beneath my lids. Thinking, I, retreat to the past distressed relationships. Bright dark red raging blood leaks before the dawn. Mistaken desire of stealing a life. Confusion ancient pasts witnessed abuse. Shamed that cowering despair persuades maneuver of nothing. Cowardly I act. Silence deadly seeing with eyes blind to every thing but what's at hand. Hate prevails. My desire for no emotion so I can walk away. No regrets. Not caring to let you live in your world upside down. Burnt up with drugs. Memories you take carrying on your back will feel like rocks. My rage stays. Reminisces on what you had it will not travel with you. Go alone face the cruel silence. Cold heart, misery will follow. As for me, behind I will stay alone to relish in peace. Alone forever I savor. Resting in the cocoon I've woven. Awaiting my butterfly wings. So I can fly away.
