Asleep

My rage runs deep.
My anger will reap.
I'll tear myself apart,
try to rip out my heart.
I'll leave myself alone,
try to do this  on my own.
I'll look back on my life,
try to end all the strain and strife.
My rage runs deep.
My anger will reap.
These monsters will come out as I slowly fall
asleep.

Thank you Kenisha, and I'm sorry I couldn't answer earlier, I've been really caught up in Christmas stuff, or I would have answered earlier.
