Savage


I want to be a savage

The only question is how?

Be fierce

Violent 

Uncontrolled

Be a sort of animal 

A force of nature

A part of a regarded people

Primitive 

Uncivilized

Attack ferociously

A Trinity that unites at me 

Through me 

and branches off of me 

A Godhead that commands no one but myself

 

It must be pure ecstasy to be a savage 

I wish upon stars and swear on the holy to be a savage 

I cannot be a savage though

I am too dirty 

I am covered in things that a savage cannot be covered in

But i still wish 

On my birthday

On Christmas

Maybe in another life i can be a savage

Maybe.
