Perhaps I'd be considered
Mental
Absolutely
Insane
If I were given the opportunity
To speak my mind
To truly say
That I desperately desire
A burning, raging fire
To scorch my soul
Sure, I feel like a maniac
Anyone would,
if they wanted to set themselves on
fire.
But moreover,
I feel
Manic.
Because I know
If my life had gone any other way
I wouldn't have been able
To fall in love
With myself.
The feeling of
Hating someone
Being angry with someone
Who hurt me
Rather than
Hating myself
Being angry at myself
For being hurt,
Is so liberating.
And this is why
I feel like I've
set myself
on fire.
Because I've been
Reborn.
Like a fucking phoenix.
And I'm absolutely
fucking
radiant.
