Cage

Poetry

By May WellsPublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

Appear to be normal outside

a beast from within

Beast locked up in chains

Beast filled with hate

Beast with no mind

Beast angry and wild,

Wild and angry longing to be free,

Acting like an animal in a cage

Breaking chains

Scars and wounds

I fear becoming one

I hope others will see the beast within them

The beast will forget what made them mad

The beast will beg for forgiveness in cries and tears

The beast will remember soon

enjoy the time you have left

Before the beast comes for you
