The Man with a Monster

He sits there, chained, angry, ready to be released, 
He screams at me, telling me to let him go
But he doesn't move, he listens to me,
Because I control him, I found him,
He does what I say, he doesn't disobey
But one day I will let him out.
For a moment, he will get revenge 
For his pain and mine as well
He'll show who I really am
And I will let him
Because I want it to happen,
My anger has to come out sometime
I truly don't care on who, 
As long as my family is safe from it
Once I let him loose,
Let him.... go on a rampage, 
Then and only then,
You will see me for who I am
Not a man, 
A patient monster
