It starts out like a spark,
A dim fire ignited over aggregation,
The fire spreads,
Filing in cracks once broken,
Substituting sadness for irritability,
Waiting to burst at the seams,
I struggle to grasp the reins,
So I let them go.
Words tumble out that I can't take back,
An outrage that can't be stifled until let loose,
Regret takes over my senses as the fire smothers,
"I'm sorry",
The words get trapped in my throat.
