Caged Beast
Caged Beast
Thoughtful and logical mind now becomes primeval, unruly and savage
Anger and hatred in every thought come to the fore
Life you betrayed me, I don’t need you anymore
Don’t enter my domain, don’t stare at me, touch me or utter a word
Attack is on my mind, no warning will be given or heard
Pain is my mistress and silence my desire
My entire body and mind are on fire
Psychotic – Anger, red mist
Neurotic – Anxious, obsessive, black haze
Catatonic – Silent, motionless, colourless and crazed
Doctors what do they know
They google it, they read it, do they understand it?
I have to dam well live it
