My Madness

The violence of my repentance
Was all that kept me sane
Or so it seemed to me
Twenty-six
Twenty-six years
Of hammering my mind
Of hiding from and within my self
Was I sane back then?
Well, for a little while
By sixteen
I snapped
No more rape
That damned divorce
And so little by little
I became.....
Someone
But not me
I'm not crazy you understand?
For I know the nature of my madness
I have decided to embrace it
To allow it room to grow
For you see my madness don't you?
It talks to you now

It's me
