Darcy's caged rage

by Mr. Darcy   Jun 24, 2008


Commitments are defining,
My days and restless nights.
The unrelenting chanting,
too much for me to fight.

Words claw my fragile smile,
Try to turn it upside down.
Rusting nails pierce my heart,
I scream with silent frown.

I bite my tongue and swallow,
This metallic tasting blood.
It fills my guts with poison,
These resented waters flood.

I can feel it manifesting,
My control is failing fast.
Such hate is burning larva,
It connects my brutal past.

If you would see me smiling,
Look in my damning eyes,
Glimpse a mind of vengeance,
Through the murderer's disguise

Antagonise, if you dare
To see if I'll explode,
Reveal my spitting demon,
His rawness is exposed.

Rage is my alter ego,
Revenge is locked away
Evil Darcy's revulsion
Is just waiting to repay.

My cell of flesh and blood
Has been stabbed for many years
Every time I had to swallow,
Cold blood or souring tears

These walls have bled their strength,
Too long I've staved his will
Darcy's rage erupting
Now born to bloody kill.

    Too long I've staved his will
    Darcy's rage erupting
    Now born to bloody kill.

    ^^^My favorite stanza, Michael..
    I know of this feeling you are writing about, the feeling of being defenseless and helpless and wanting to break free from the hurt..
    Life is not fair, sweetheart..it is not that for any occupant on this earth. Grin and bear it has always been my motto, but maybe I will give in to the rage one day too and then you can visit me behind bars, lol

    Hugs,

    5/5 Ingrid
