Happily Angry

You're so satisfied 

with being happily angry,

that you don't realize 

there's so much more to life,

then wearing animosity like a backpack 

that you hold on for dear life.

Doesn't this wear you out? 

 Since you're so occupied 

chasing and holding onto the past, 

like kid being controlled by their kite,

life will just continue to grow up

with out you .

And by the time you blink,

you've already missed out.
