Inner Tantrum

by blarg   Nov 16, 2004


Unfair!unfair!
My inner child is screaming, kicking
I find comfort with my inner tantrum
My true feelings try hard to reach my surface
They hardly ever succeed
I wish I could do as he did
Just walk through totally blameless
Untouchable
how I yearn to be untouched
By her the beast
waiting, plotting the end of me
They all assume
Assume that I'm guilty as charged
They ask the truth of me
I can't even recall this words meaning
I've become tangled
Tangled in my own web of uncleanliness
My spirit is ragged
worn down with the baggage of this world
Dying inside
a little at a time
as one by one
They rip apart my soul

    Good work. I liked the subject of this one a lot, very original. I liked the images you created of this inner tantrum. I loved the ending.

    Keep it up!
