Anger

Anger So much anger inside of you At times i don’t know what to do I watch you drink and then pass out I just want to scream and shout You can pretend all you want but i know you see How all of this is affecting me You yell and scream to prove a point Never think of how i feel You seem to think the louder you talk The more i’ll understand What you don’t see is it hurts me That you think that i’m so dense All the words you say to me Would make just as much sence If given in a Quieter tone Instead of going on and on You seem to think that life is bad But look at all you have You have a son who cares for you Even when he’s hurting too You have a daughter Smart and bright Who is willing to fight Friends and Family who are in your life I just don’t see how you call this strife So many people don’t have what you have I know that it’s hard Sometimes you don’t want to carry on But all you have to do Is look deep inside you You are the maker of your own fate Don’t let yourself be consumed by hate Michael and I care for you But we have to take care of us too We want to help and make things right We try and try with all our might But you just turn your head away Not wanting to see the pain Make your choice and make it soon Before it is too late Don’t just let life pass you by Cause I’m telling you, it just might One day you’ll wake up and we’ll be gone Everything you hold dear We won’t look back Won’t feel bad Just wipe a tear away Because you do affect us in every way

How difficult it must have been to pen this. As a child I had to see the effects my parents habit had on me. May you find the strength to resolve it. Bless You......Karla
