Some people scream until their lungs give out
At the moment of pure frustration.
Others hit at walls or drink till stupid
And more curse as if a holy invocation.
Yet I have come to see in myself,
And no matter how hard I try,
The moment I am angry,
I only seem to cry.
What grand betrayal is this?
My own body does me wrong.
I'd like to be poised and stoic,
Instead I'm a child who isn't strong
I lose focus of why I'm upset,
With these things inside my eye,
Oh, how I really do detest
That if I'm angry all I can do is cry.
