Anger In Me

Tears in my eyes raging righteous anger flow threw me like high tides. Dam walls crumbling around me Why can't I be free from the fears and anger in me? Why can't I escape the black abysses that yawn to swallow me? Impending disasters one after and after and after. Why can't I be free of my inferiorities Searching for acceptance that warming stimulation of another one's compassion. Fuming helplessly and unknowingly countless times endless lies weakening my strives. Thinking it shall pass but still it stays alive. Oh how I pray Oh God! Oh God! Clear these tears from my eyes rid me of this anger that stays alive. By Jay Johnson

I love the last passage=0) Hmmm..I fear that we hold on the the illusion of control too often. Once we let that go then we will be able to exhale the anger that is inside. good write!
