Inside the Mind of a Psychopath

Sitting alone in that corner is me.
See the tear falling down my eye,
It's a lie.
Trying to fool you,
Trying to suck you in.
I'm numb. I cannot feel.
I'm immune to pain. Immune to you.
Look, look at me.
I'm squeezing my life, suffocating my soul,
And making your life miserable.
Or perhaps ending it.
Do you like what you see?

The free verse could be the thoughts inside the mind of a psychopath.

Or maybe different.

What molds the father's tendency or aberrant sexual behavior to rape his own child? What drives psychopaths do bestial or deleterious acts?

Slashing throats, mutilating bodies, cutting testicles, burning cadavers, multiple rape, multiple murder...What made them cold-blooded psychopaths? Quite intrigued by how they think and feel, I want to sneak a glimpse into their mind.

"Actus reus non facit reum nisi mens sit rea." A Latin maxim which means that an act does not make a person guilty of his crime unless his mind be also guilty.

When asked what made them do such repulsive acts, they would often say "I hear inner voices telling me to." So it all starts in the mind. And their mind could either be their saving grace or their worst waterloo. Whether it's the cause or the effect, thing is, what's inside their mind matters.

What's inside your mind?
