Rage

"Tatl, it's no good! I'm going to have to..."
"No! You can't! You don't know what'll happen..."
"I know. But do I have a choice?"

-

In a second, I feel the rage take me over.
A surge of power eats at my soul...
An agony, an ecstacy, far beyond imagining,
Burning destruction, deep inside.
For a moment, I am not who I think...
I am not who I used to be...

I stand before my enemy
And watch the fear in his eyes.
I feel no sympathy, only hatred
Far inside, where my heart used to be.

I am power.
I am destruction.

I don't care anymore...

I charge in. The burning passion inside
Guides me, takes control as I strike.
I revel in the enemy's pain,
The suffering of the demon,
The fury and the fear.
One more blow, and it is done.
My task accomplished
Before my world fades...

I wake up. Was it all a dream?
A nightmare?
Am I truly who I believe
And who I see?

I carry the memory with me.
Time can hide the scars outside,
Fade all trace of the past,
But it can never hide
The pain.
