Calm Rage

There's something about the rotting of your skin
It stings
It stings
There's something about the horrid wrinkles above your forehead
Caused by the strain of lies
They are
They are
There's something about that white facade of yours
It's fake
It's fake
There's something about your heart
To RIP it out
I want to
I want to
There's something about your soul
It's superficial...
It's empty..
It's hollow...
It's blank
It's blank
There's something about the look in your eyes
Full of regret

But..

It's too late
It's too late

 

There's something in me that burns with desire

to set you on FIRE.

 

There's something in me that itches with DISGUST

 

at that voice of yours

 

which scratches at my ears

 

into my body

 

peeling every single cell within.

 

There's something in me, this VORACIOUS appetite

 

which will subside in time

 

as the darkening of your days

 

slowly FEED it to my delight.

 

There's something about the misery you are going through

it fills me with EASE.

The darkest side in me, you brought out.

 

But there's something in me that feels good

 

SO GOOD

 

to let it all out..

This is real poetry. I like the description and the emotion in the words. Some people can bring out the worst in us.
"There's something in me that itches with DISGUST
at that voice of yours
which scratches at my ears
into my body
peeling every single cell within."
No weakness in this amazing poem.

Great poetry, full of expressive emotion and power. i can feel the anger, hatred and relief at the end. Well done, a unique and honest poem.
