Anger in Her

Don't you understand?

Those tears falling down her face,

staining her cheeks,

preventing her words

They are not just because she is sad.

No, rather, they are full of all of her emotions

The ones the world tells her to bottle up

shove down, hide away.

It's her confidence

Her desperation

Her embarrassment

But most of all-

Those tears are her anger

She knows what she wants to say

What she wants to shout

Her mouth just will not form the words

No matter how hard she tries

Her tears are full of unspoken phrases

Evidence of her broken heart

And the anger she holds inside
