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.
