Anger

I try so hard to control my temper

I know I should not speak in anger

And all self control seem to waver

Can't take it that you're with another

 

I know at times I cause you pain

Sometimes I think I have lost my brain

I am still tied with jealousy's chain

My heart still singing a sad refrain

 

Every time I know that you have to rush

I just can't help but feel so crushed

My temper runs away in a dash

Self control turns to nothing but ash

 

The pain just causes me to shudder

But it's just caused by my soul's hunger

From this jealousy I try hard to recover

Try to control, to hold back my anger
