my own little world

slip through convey
this mortal contrast
echoes echoes echoes
through my mind
wandering thoughts reveal
a single flaw denoted
confused, defused
a bomb of rage
of self destruction
wonder what i'll do next
wonder what the fury will bring
"hello. my name is Rage.
i've come to visit you today,
and yeess, i will enjoy my stay"

freaked out to calm
paranoid reading psalms
worried that my next
brain overload
will take my life
why why why
through my mind
try try try
to make it all make sense
want to send it packing
to the trash
mail a package
to hell make it crash

suffer through the fun
return and leave again
i think i'm ready to stop
stop the ride stop it now
it's gone to far
and don't tell me it's too late

--just wanted to throw this in your guys's direction & see what you all have to say, it's kindove a rewrite of something i posted a while back.

rest upon existence. seek life,  
and forever never die.

your right it is kinda weak...but i forgot to mention i took out the cuss words in this, so that may be why...don't know if that makes much of a difference or not, and i don't think it should be cut all together because then there would be a hole in the meaning i think.

rest upon existence. seek life,  
and forever never die.

Question - what makes you think that cuss words would make a weak verse stronger?
