The Evil Inside Me

I've been nice--and I've been kind A smile you'll see all the time No harsh words you'll ever hear But i'm warning you beware If you push me to the brink I won't even stop to think about the actions I'll display So you better turn away Before my bottled up emotions Cause all kind of bad commotions There's only so much I can take Until the point I start to break Angel wings and halo gone Replaced by my two devil horns That will pierce your very soul When you make me lose control Of my caring and sweet ways That I practice every day Avoiding all the confrontations Leading to such aggravation That builds up inside quickly And there's no where you can be A burning starts to quickly build A hot fire and it will Not decrease until you say I am sorry for the way My actions have been rude and mean Never meant to cause a scene This message I send to you I'll be nice if you will too

That last line is spot on. Again, totally identified with this. I'm pretty easy-going until you push my buttons, and I have one big red "nuclear" button that when pressed, watch the F out! But I just can't imagine you getting that angry; I see nothing but sweetness in you, but I know we all have our limits. Great write, sweet pea! <3
