A Moment of Madness

A Moment of Madness

I wasn't so bad, never so wrong

No intention to hurt, no complicated lies

Never let vengeance burn, so much to let friendship die

Took no joy in pain, consoled when I heard someone cry

Loved my baby, was happy with my life

But that moment, a moment I can’t deny

A blinding rage, provocative entice

Wild fury, vindictive style

Caustic words & incongruous fight 

A maddening day was all I could surmise 

Split of second, submission to haste

Overwhelmed by weakness, I lost my stake

Wicked I was, I don’t know why

Careless stance clinched, & now I sigh

I search my soul, but fail to find 

Answers to the questions that creep in my mind

Looking for reasons that don’t seem mine

I feel entangled & lost in my dark design

The deed is done, the moment passed

Tears & pain inflicted will linger till the last…
