The First Of Many


"The wolves inside my head

Gnawing at my brain

Try to take my essence 

And flush it down the drain

Remember who I am

If it's those wolves I tame

If I can't defeat them

I might just be too late

For if I can't contain them

It's my life they'll claim

Because I want to feel

Something other than the pain."

TamingOfSeaWolves

Just your typical geek. If you care to look deeper though...You can see the layers I have created. The worlds I call my own live in my imagination. Creating riddles and poems and lives and characters to become and get lost in. No one knows me, or at least the me behind the blinds. PLEASE COMMENT instagram=tamingofseawolves
