Burn

I could take the world and watch it burn
Leave behind the antagonistic barbs of society
If people are hell, as they say
Then I am the devil

Forced to roam amongst the hell
Punishment, not power or freedom
No, I was cast out of peace and love
And here I sit, surrounded by the hell we’ve created

Other people are the cage of suffering
Pushing against my skin like thorns
Invading my mind until I have no space for me
Only repetitious thoughts of expectations and perceptions

I would be the storm ravaging the shores
Wash away the knives of society
Destroy every concept forced into my consciousness without consent
Leaving only barren land and empty air

Fire and destruction pushing outward
Revolting against the fire within, started long ago
I want to scream for the stupidity of it all
Burn it down, wash it away and leave it empty, free of the hell.
