The Beast Within

I feel the rage surfacing, the beast is coming out
I suggest you stay away
The beast will tear you to shreds and leave you for dead
The rage of the beast has no feelings, no emotions
I fight to keep the beast caged, but the rage inside is stronger
It thrives on the dark and turns out the light completely 
Once it’s out of its cage it will feed on the rage and kill everything in its path.
