I don't know if this verse will work,
Nor even if it will rhyme.
I felt the need to write or go berserk,
I didn't worry about keeping time.
I read a verse from one dear to me today,
It drove a blow straight through my heart,
Felt like being abandoned by Fate,
right from the start.

She made me cry, she made my heart bleed
She filled my hollow soul with echoes of her need.
My heart clenched as my resolve wrenched,
I felt a killing lust like a thrust through my brain.
When the sorrow had passed and I could see again,
All I saw was red, everything tinted by dread.

I felt the old need welling within, climbing ever higher,
Becoming a roaring, raging bonfire.
The ecstasy of killing and the heady feel of pain
All came rushing back again.
I tried to call to see if it was true, she didn't answer
Either not home or not picking up the phone.

I wavered between misery and madness, rage and sadness
Until tonight when she came online, this more than
Anything convinced me she was fine. Now what do I do with this impotent rage of mine?

Words are wonderful outlets for rage... keep on writing... unleash the madness! Let it all out! That pain and sadness! You know I love your words. And thank you so much for your concern!

Quick replies are like soft, lover's sighs. I find them exhilirating. Thank you.

I don't feel this rage that often, being a mellow person, but when I do, this is how I feel. Wonderfully done, DreamEvil!

I know this one was for one voice...I see her posting has left you with the same emotions as I...the two of you have left me almost speechless today, and for me that says alot.

Very true, all of you. She sent me to my knees.
