This poem is a sequel to "Forever in the Dark"
Under Lock and Key
in denial of the truth before him
never wanting others to see beyond the cold mask of a
killer
so much dignity and pride to burden
an enigma amongst society
much desire to be left alone in peace
but never taking much joy in being a lone wolf
to why he had to lead a life where he kept everyone
at arm's length
he'll never know but will regret it dearly
in his youth, peers were most unkind
scorn him for what he was
different from the rest and having such a strong
sense of purpose
sense of already knowing of what and who he was to
become
no one able and ready to understand him
defenses held strong in his mind and aura
never to let anyone get past the barriers
get to the side of him that he wasn't proud of
over time of such a strong ego
made him hard and cold to the world around him
being quite aware of the darkness in mans' heart
their true nature yet to be unleashed upon the earth
coming to an understanding that keeping the balance
was vital
between peace and what society could not obtain
themselves
to assign himself to such a duty
another sense of his purpose in life
placing his dark view and caliber into this goal
serving out what he believes is right
no matter if it involved pain, torture, and murder
let his skills as an agent to guide
and his gun to do the talking for him
so many faults within' our society
many sins to correct
so little time to get to them all
to be disgusted by the many flaws in this world and
man
much disappointment in himself also
a never ending battle to right
determined to never give up
he prefers to lone his lifetime quest
never finds partnership of any use
only to be a burden and a great annoyance
drag him down in the process
can't get anything done the way he wants
not like there's many who would lend him aide and
heed
perfect and all the better to his soul
the owner of a lonely heart
to wander forever in the dark
with pride and beliefs to show him the way
the key to his survival and longtivity within' a
harsh world
unrelenting denial of the truth well under wraps
under lock and key
