Storm in my Temple

There’s a storm up in my temple and it is starting to bleed,
Got to run with the momentum, just so the girl can be freed,
But I'm hiding in the corner from the edge of certain bliss,
Surrounded by an illusion, a façade, recreating happiness,
Anxiety is brewing like an old unwelcome friend,
Rousing suppressed memories, enemies to contend,
With war in my heart, I tackle the battle in my brain
I destroy the harshness of sunshine, instead seducing the rain.
Droplets accumulate around me with a well intended grin
Softly whispering 'To find liberty, you've got to let destruction win,
There's no way to halt your hurricane, so stand within the eye.
Fight not to be broken, push free, eliminate your lie.'

Wait where I stand, feeling no need to concede,
I stand frozen, still afraid to believe
That the suffocation of silence, can eventually be dismantled
That I don't need the protection, I'm a warrior unshackled
Was the strength that I needed, hidden deep in my heart?
If that's the case, why the hell do I still embrace the dark?
It's weird, when I wrote it I could hear it being rapped. Wink/Razz  The first verse really. But my rapper is still incredibly rusted, unused, sat in the corner of my head tipping back a stiff drink, broken out from that disillusioned belief that he'll have a day in the lime light. No, I disagree! xD

   It's a small piece of writing, links to a bit of my past. And very much represents the difficulty in being able to speak out, being scared of people knocking you down, and a lifetime of silence having to be broken. (Yup all in this iddy piece)

 I'm thinking of extending it sometime as part of my Mistress of Mischief self-representation character in her origin story, but who knows. :) (Smile)

Wish I could rap without tripping over the words (I guess some just can't do it :P ) I like the imagery of it, and the power of it. Looking forward to seeing more to your Mistress of Mischief :hug:
