Consume


There is a terrible rage that consumes my being

An uncontrollable emotion I've let fester in my heart

Like a volcano erupting, my anger I've kept at bay

Was tested and began to outpour this day


My wrath is not seething with fuel and fire

It is without remorse, cruel, and insensitive

Indifference has become my closest friend

In trying times my patience is tested to its limit


I am not sorry for the words I've mindlessly said

Nor am I asking for anyone else's forgiveness

The coldness I've felt has spread throughout my body

Now I don't give my attention to someone else's pity party
