Unknown Feelings

will i ever be whole,
without a darkness inside,
it swirls around in hunger,
wanting to taste the blood,
to feel the teeth sink into the vein,
the iron taste of blood calms it,
but time after time it wants more,
so why can't i curb it,
do i have to kill to fill it,
why can't it go away,
i just want it to go away,
to stop acting like a hound after blood,
to stop giving me these feelings of death
