Try

The old self could be someone that caused all the pain.

Please forgive the words

that expelled out of my mouth

for it was not me

who expressed that

intoxicated malice

It was a guy

who is knocking in my mind

-

He rattles inside

like a caged animal

He takes me places

that I would never dare go

Do ineffable things

This guy is a rocket

burning dragster

-

I try insidiously

to make changes

but maybe I can’t

If you leave me

I’ll be deflated

and he will come alive

burning everything of my life

-

He was once me

without my permission

Now he is asking

for fun so I will end up

dwelling in chum

Do forgive or at least

do not flee

Please try!
