Cage
Cage, detain me from this rage
For all this rage will consume
Swallowing whole this anger in me
So much rage it burns
Spitting out this hatred soothes
And tames this rage that whips inside me with such furry
Turned against my own free will
I’ve locked into your hollow
Cage, detain me from this rage
Confronting deception
My sorrow’s decreasing
So toxic the vengeance that drenches these wounds;
The poison’s unceasing
Caught up in this mental disorder;
A dark craze turned pleasing
Cage, detain me from this rage
I cannot withhold the anger
It stabs out affection
Like the needle injection;
Misleading to drain …
Deteriorating the guilt
So splitting it goes
With the darkness imploring
So massively roaring
Harassing to more the vile of defeat
“This rage must increase for this rage will not cease”
Cage; detain me from this rage
Spare me the violence that violated me
Sedate the explosion that started this war
For this rage will not cease!
