Anger is what’s inside
I try to hide it
But it’s consuming me
form the inside out
I wish that I didn’t feel the way I do I wish that fear wasn’t what I held on to
I wish that I was brave
I wish that I had enough talent
To pick up my family and carry them
But truth be told it’s overwhelming
To carry so much weight and still have to carry my own
I’ve cried
I’ve tried to wipe away the tears but how could you wipe away so much sorrow
That continues in a never ending cycle of pain
I’m drowning
And desperately holding on to hope
But I fear that the positivity that I had once held on to is starting to fade away turning my blue sky’s grey
A skyscraper filled with hate
I look away because I’d rather stay comfortable at the top then to leave and add another floor of pain
Could you tell me what to do?
You couldn’t even tell me how to feel
My heart beats
but I can feel the crack in it thudding in my chest
You couldn’t hear that
You were blind
But I hope now you see
I hope now things change
And you won’t be
What people perceive you to be
