Lightning-Dono: The poem is on Magnius! Due to a suggestion by Naomi Irving, the title is "Beast". :) Thank you for the idea! ALSO, in the poem, when he says 'A tail of red', he's referring to his hair.
Answers to the Reviews:
lisette – Thank you! I am not worthy of your overwhelmingly high placing of my poems. ((fancy bow))
Nameless – Oh, it's fine if you say they're depressing. It's super-hard to write happy poems, and besides, happiness is so VAGUE sometimes, so it's hard to write with that sense. Thank you, by the way! Magnius is next. ((grin)) ((indicates to note above answers to the reviews))
Beast
A fire hidden
Many passions muted
The last thing exposed
Is a tail of red
I wish I could rewrite my image
And change how I looked
The disrespect was intolerable
The eyes that followed hurt
I want to change the beast inside
And let it loose and free
I want to escape from myself
And release the evil out
A devil lives in my mind
He haunts my dreams and changes me
True evil comes from the heart
And the heart is connected to the mind and soul
This beast that makes me run
The beast that makes me climb
A beast that makes me fight
A beast that won't let me cry
The scars from being beaten
Linger in my hands
The blood spilt won't ever be regained
So I gave what I had of my life
What I had of myself
To the beast
I walk the streets
And see others flee
I begin to think
Of what the beast has done to me
It changed my reputation
And sunk ice into my veins
No longer will I emit a positive aura
But one that's tainted with evil
This beast lives inside me
It sees what I see
And hears what I do
It shares my energy
And tries to kill my fear
The good side of me?
Sorry, it's gone
I've been offered
To the beast
I know it was stupid and horrible, but I didn't know what to do with the word 'Beast'. xD
