Anger

When my breathing

Starts to elevate

When my heart beats

Faster

And my mind starts fantasizing

It's a dangerous time

To be near

That line

I just want to yell

And scream

Smash plates

And glass

Loving the sound

Of it crack

The sound of something

Breaking

Other than myself

Shattering

From the pounding inside

During this cold

Dark time

Introvert

Or Extrovert

It's all the same

The explosion is catastrophic

That's why we try

To keep it inside

To be nice

To be proper

For no one should have to see

Such a sight

But why can't I say

How I feel

Or what I think

Why isn't it okay

I'm tired of holding back

Until my knees get weak

Tears springing to my eyes

Then falling to the ground

Anger is nothing to play with

For who knows how far you will go

It's nothing to analyze or outwit

It's not a feeling you can understand

Until you are there

Its a mindset you should never share

So what do I do

I isolate myself

Go to an empty room

Sink into my music

Drink in the sound

Crank the ear buds loud

Till I can't hear

Anyone else

Not my own thoughts

Not the loud yells

My mouth is forced to close

Holding those words back

My body is forced to freeze

Stopping the attack

Anger is not a game

That can be won or lost

Just set back to another day

The lyrics and the beat

Are my salvation

Calming my beast

Putting my anger

Back to sleep
