ANGER

ANGER

A Poem by Cyndy Robinson

I was born with a deadly weapon
worse than an atomic bomb.
It is not user friendly.
A master tool of torture
kills
sorrow suffocates in its wake
and while I grieve
it breeds.

Cyndy,
I completely understand what you are saying. Without going into any personal detail I have had many issues in dealing with my anger. I think I have improved as I have grown older but I have torched a dragons path in my day.
One thing that has helped me is watching someone else have a meltdown. I get to witness how ugly an immature I look. Tough lesson to learn.
Well written and well understood.

Thank you!
This piece is magnificently relatable. A strong anger also lives within me. I bottle it up, but it leaks out sometimes and shocks those around me. I reel it back in quickly, though. It frightens me how strongly it burns inside sometimes. I have no clue as to the source, but I have a feeling it's my own doing, whatever it is. That's usually how it works... =/
