Useless Emotion

Oh, I feel anger
As if the heated contents of a tea pot
Are ready to burst forth
I, too, know anger
As I must not let it get the better of me
Must control it
I want anger
In order to convey what I am feeling
To get to the point
Yet, I fear anger
For I may react rather than act
Ruining chances

I guess the only solution
Is suppression
I have too much to lose
And nothing to gain
Ah, the pointless ramblings
Inspired by this useless feeling
