Anger and Nothing
Anger is all I feel nowadays.
A never ending frustration towards everything and everyone
This overwhelming feeling of needing to do things but unable to do so,
Of being unable to achieve the goals I set out to do, always one mark
less than what I aimed for.
A heavy weight in my chest so that I feel like I'm unable to breathe.
I want to scream, shout, punch...but I don't. I just lie in my bed
and stare at the wall snapping at anyone who dares come near me.
I don't know why I feel this way but it's never ending, always there.
Sometimes it's all I feel and sometimes it lies just under all the other
feelings just waiting till
I'm alone, till I have nothing else to do.
Than it returns stronger than before
Like a fire all consuming burning inside me till it burns everything
away leaving me empty inside. Feeling drained and tired.
My heart hurts like it's been stomped on a million times and
I want to fix it, reshape it but I don't know how.
You told me to let all my anger, my hate and despair go,
to just let it all go but yo never told me how.
So now I'm stuck with this never ending hatred burning inside
and I'm worried one day I'll blow up like a bomb,
hurting the people around me.
So tell me how to fix myself, to let go of all of this before
I really do explode.

I'm really bad at ending poems and stories and stuff so I sorta just stopped in
the middle of it.
