The Blame Game

The Blame Game© I am irate, I want to be angry Something has set me off And I want someone to be responsible To be the target of my rage I just want to let loose To vent this unexplained feeling It is like a storm that has brewed And now like a tornado wants to become a twister To unleash that which has been pent up Now looking for someone to thrust my energy upon A nameless victim who doesn’t even see it coming Who will be the benefactor of the thrust released Likely someone who is close like a spouse or a friend Or maybe a complete stranger Unaware of the catalyst That will spark this verbal assault I just need that someone who will listen To my frustration, my angst, my worries Hear what I have to say and just be The voice of reason And as time passes As I journal and negotiate with myself It has begun to dissipate, to unravel And the storm has passed There is no one to blame It was all part of the game Andreas Simic©
