I Need To Calm Down

My anger grows like tsunami
I need to calm down as fast as it can be
I fear it is the beginning of another Katrina
My real nature is beautiful as shallow water

My heart is beating very high
I think I will lose my control
It is not a good experience
I want to relax and have peace

I need to do something very soon
let me think what can I do for that
I fear I will explode like a volcano
It may destroy other peoples lives too

I don't want to do it
I don't want to hurt anyone
I want to forgive and forget
What others done wrong to me

I looked around for real help
I didn't see anyone with a specific plan
I closed my eyes and pray for a moment
Like a miracle I feel I am being helped

Thanks a lot. I also turn to God for help. Belief in God is my biggest strength. But unfortunately I feel too much frustrated sometimes and won't feel like turning to God. Eventhough my final answer is always God. If you want to watch the videos go to www.youtube.com ....click onto broadcast yourself. Then type babjos in the search box. You will be able to see my videos.
