I was in pain
I was in pain
I had to scream
I had to squeal
I had to roar
I had to break
Stuff
I had to hit doors
And wake up
Everyone
I had to slam
My fist
On the tables
I had to insult
I had to boast
I had to howl
I had to holler
I had to be hollow
Eyes for a day
I had to let it out
I had to keep looking
For love
The day is over
And I’m appeased
Jesus didn’t
Come on
Some cloud
To make everything
Ok
I had to hit the keys
On my piano
So that life
Comes back
In a triumph
Of love
I had to break
Myself into pieces
And dive deep
Into misery
Without losing
The thread
I have to,
I had to keep
Going on
Even if it wasn’t
On winged chariot
Eating peanuts
And reading
About crazy prophecies
That’s what makes me
Human,
For my own sake.

I loved it! The true art is that makes us feel the same author’s feelings or the feelings that he wanted to express.
Words are magical.
