Analysis of Wrath



Is this my bidding?
Self destruction?
Oh who am I kidding,
It's my seduction.

To think the shadows were real at all,
When it was my choice, to take the fall.

Yet I chose to point away the blame.
Maybe to avoid this dreadful shame.

Wrath, maybe its what I want.
Something deep down I love to taunt.

I am the shadow that's causing my pain.
Creator of my suffering so it forever remains.
