*This is about an anger of mine that I've surpressed for a long time now, I had to let it out somehow....
As those words leave your mouth
The words that start it all
Or rather
Restart it all-
“Can you just- go away?”
I feel nothing
No pain, hurt
No anger
But I soon thaw
Slowly, emotions trickle in
And I can’t believe
You did it again
Can’t believe you only noticed
Because of one person
Then again
I can’t believe you try to break me now
You never tried before
But there you go
Scurrying up to me
Intent on one thing
My anger dissipating
I watched you try before
Saw you plead with others
To no avail
Yet I know when you perch beside me
I will crack
I know despite my anger
My hurt
My desire to show you I will not tolerate it this time
Your words will get under my skin
My anger will be pushed back
Because I can’t stand this divide
I know the only way to succeed is in silence
And I know, despite my nature of listening
Words will unwillingly tumble out
Strange, isn’t it?
You so easily persuade me
And I so easily draw on your emotions
But is it so strange?
So many could persuade me if they tried
And I am not the only one
Who can call upon emotions
You try so hard not to show
Maybe we are kidding ourselves a little
Or maybe I just feel not so extra-special
As you want me to believe
Knowing my rage is short
I do all I can
To make you see my anger
Because, when you turn to me
My hurt shall linger longer
