From the wreckage
of a corrupted, tormented childhood
a dark spirit rose,
an unwanted, unwelcome legacy,
that fed and grew,
on twisted bitter feelings
of anger, sorrow and betrayal,
festering, fermenting,
this darkness within, until
it could be contained no longer,
in the bleak, lonely silence of the years,
and vented it's outrage and dispair,
yet, once given a voice,
this curse somehow became an ally,
a protector and guide,
if not quite a friend,
my dark spirit is always with me.
