Every morning, I awake to face another day,
Same old thing, the same routine, I work but cannot play,
I slowly make my way through time and leave my trail behind,
I scream for help, no one can hear, feels like I'm bound and tied,
but then the hour approaches, when daytime turns to night,
I feel something inside of me, this thing I cannot fight,
I look upon my new-found self, I feel like I'm reborn,
All my thoughts of good are gone, my mind is ripped and torn,
The night brings out the rage in me, I found my beast within,
I fall asleep as night-time ends, to have this start again...

This is INTENSE, VampDude, and how well i can relate to the vicious cycle of mood!  And you portrayed it superbly!  Welcome!

Vamp Dude, welcome to passions.  Great poem.  I think we all have a beast within.  It is up to us to tame it.  Good luck!

 Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end.
