Rage

by Chris   Nov 7, 2009


I don't know what it is right now
But all I feel is one single emotion
I don't know why this is happening
But it keeps boiling up more and more

I feel like I'm being consumed by this
As this fiery rage consumes my being
And I lash out at everyone who talks to me
And I don't even know why I'm so angry

Maybe it's because I'm disgusted my life
Maybe it's jealousy I have of those around me
All I know is I'm picking fights with everyone
And hurting those I'm suppose to care about

But when I realized my anger was a problem
It didn't help me get over my problem
Instead it only fueled it more soaring to new heights
Because it's not something I can talk about

If I tell my family, they only insult me
If I tell my girlfriend she only worries more
If I tell a stranger they don't really care
If I tell a councilor he tries to rationalize it

But the truth is there is no rationality
This rage is not governed by logic
This rage wants to burn everyone it can
And I think it's gonna burn me.

    You got the emotion across and the reader can feel that emotion, so good job there. I think the word choice is nice though it could be a bit stronger. The flow felt perfect which was good. Great job
