The Beast

Dormant and still it lies in wait
Ready at any moment to take the bait
Like a silent assasin it is silent
Until the beast comes out and things get violent

Words, actions and mean threats
The beast manifests like angry pets
How to stop such an outburst
It's the same 'ol thing almost like it's rehearsed

But as the anger subsides and the beast goes to sleep
The hurt and pain it caused runs deep
Regrets, tears and painful words
Oh just save it for the birds

Learn to control this anger and the beast
Otherwise you will end up losing everything to say the least
A fool speaks out in anger and a wise man has few words
This last part does not rhyme but is worth more in wisdom than a dime
