3: Creature

Is it my fault for acting this way?

I'm rude, but I still care,

They say tomorrow's a new day,

I worry about my welfare,

Words pour out before I can stop them,

I lash out when without a leash,

I yearn to be tame, but can't,

I look in the mirror, and see a beast,

Wild, and alone, 

A stray long gone,

Scraps and bones,

Never the first one,

They try and fail,

To tame my anger and sorrow,

Then I'm up for sale,

Another ally tomorrow,

Abandoned to die,

Kicked to yelp,

I don't want to yell nor lie,

But I'd rather do that, than ask for help,


(Fun Fact: If you read it backwards it sounds really good! Another Fun Fact: I did not intend for it to be able to be read backwards)
