Anger
I am often inside you
screeming to be let out
But instead you just whisper
when you need me to shout!
You hide and protect me
this is not what I need
If I am not released
your heart will bleed!
And I'll drag you down
like a heavy load
until against your will
you finally explode!
Then I'll be to blown up
and make you feel bad
so at yourself
You will stay mad!
So do me a favor
Don't keep me in
just let me out a little
when the feelings begin!
I wrote this poem when trying to deal with my anger. I work for Nami's in our own voice program as a coordinator and State trainer. I am from Long branch, NJ. I live here with my two cats Ginger and Mitzi.
I was impressed with your poem. It spoke to me directly. I also write poetry. What you wrote was excellent. It encourages me to write more of my own poetry. Thank you.
