My anger swells
And in time I fell
Overtaking is its presence
Bleeding through me as it stretches
Diseased as it spreads
The blackness over reaches
Soon now I will give in.
My hands shiver
And I see it spread
Convulsing now as it takes over
Unable to stop it
Forced to keep it a secret
As my body cringes to its presence
Silent crying goes unnoticed
Suffering I am to its stench
Unable to control it
Forced to let go
Hurting and I see it
Not just me but all things as well
Overwhelming in its place
Failing is my soul
Two timing is my heart
Angry they are at me
But me it is not
Constantly digging at my back with my claws
Trying to release which what hurts me so
Forced to watch now
Unable to stop
Bleeding is my soul now
The silent cries never stop
No one can help me
Because I’m lost in thought
Author notes
Well its about anger to the point where it takes over your body and you are powerless to stop it. But this poem is very personal.

Like this line. Stood out to me
"Forced to keep it a secret"
The things we have to hold inside ourselves, keep hidden. Hard to deal with. This is good! I think this captured anger and rage well. Could almost feel it. I can understand how this can be very personal to you. Good write!
