Save me
from the beast within me
seizing my wariness
and taking control

It took my eyes
leaving me blind
to lash out
at those i love

Save me
from the poison within me
overwhelming me
and taking control

It took my senses
leaving me drunk
to shoot down
the many doves

Save me
from the savage stranger
that is the me
i try to deny

Because,
i was not taught
to forgive
to laugh
and to fly.

- my "little" note / read it or leave it -
I don't really want to give this a title because you can look at it in so many ways. This is propably one of the deepest poems i've written so far.
It started out with me when i "lashed out" at a family member becaused i just happened to be grumpy at the time and he just happened to be close by. what a lame excuse eh? i hate myself for it and wish i could take it back. after that the poem just started, blooming? And it turned out like it was about a child of war, and hey, i like it, so there you have it.

plz R&R and tell me what you thought of when you read the poem.
