Anger a part of me

This anger inside swells up so quickly
It scares me and those who are around me
It’s in everything I do, say or think
It’s constantly there refueling close to the brink
…….ANGER
Waiting to explode to break to hurt to harm
Unable to control it, unable to see, or hear the alarm
I lose it, it terrifies me, and inside it turns and twists
Trying to be released to see blood my own dripping from my wrists
……ANGER
Now it’s calm, I stare at the pools beneath, I’m numb
I realize I have no control; I rock back and forth while I hum
Tears are flowing but I feel nothing
Just tired I want to sleep till morning
……ANGER
Hoping that I will hear it coming next time, be prepared
I won’t hurt myself this time, I won’t be scared
It’s part of me, it’s my shadow, it follows me everywhere
Waiting patiently for me give in, challenging me to a dare
……..ANGER
And yes again I lose it, it is stronger than I
This time the pools are bigger, I’m numb, just one last question, why??????

powerful write...love how the

powerful write...love how the poem and rhyming flow as one! dont let anger get the best of you! when ever you have an angry moment you can write out your feelings. or you can even release it by working out! kick box you anger!;) or listen to some really good music if you feel low. please dont harm yourself!! you know you are better than that! i find that when i tend to supress my emotions a lot i freak out by the smallest things. now i know the fact that i am supressing my emotions is not even healthy! i find that when i preoccupy my self more i tend to be less angry. i hope what i have said will ease your anger and prevent you from harming yourself!

thank you for your words and

thank you for your words and i am so trying not to let it get to me... when i wrote it i was very angry at the end i calmed down and felt some sort of relief by letting out from inside where it was harming me. i will continue to use writing to let it out as you said. i actually have a punching bag so when i cant write it i beat the bag lol... thank for your kindness and advice.
