War
Thoughts of rage
Thoughts of violence
Thoughts of sex
Thoughts of nakedness
Thoughts of uncontrollable actions engulf my mind
Emotions of raging hormones
Emotions of savage-obsessed passion bite at his skin
Emotions of extremely overpowering sexual desire
Emotions of tearing away the layers keeping me trapped inside
Emotions of uncontrollable actions engulf my mind
I fight for sanity
I fight for control
My mind swirls in disarray
Confusion is everywhere!
Releasing the cruel brutality
Of the vicious animal hidden so deep inside
Emotions unknown to all humanity
Fear drives the anxiety
Surrendering to the overwhelming need,
The overpowering desire,
The overwhelming passion,
Pure serenity escaped!
I may have lost this battle,
…but the war is not over!
