Anger WarA Poem by Joey Martinez
The anger is spreading, taking over at will
Happiness puts up a fight, but doesn't go for the kill I'm in a mental battle, locked and loaded But I can feel the grenade of anger has just exploded The mirror portrays a man being possessed Hoping to put these demons to rest I can feel my soul being pulled away Soon to be a lifeless body, ready to decay Open hands turn to fists Ignorance romances with bliss I won the battle but not the war Because the anger in me has me wanting more More regrets, more devastating moves Gasping for air while choking on angers fumes I try to change, looking for anyway out Trying to plant the seed of happiness, hoping it will sprout I'm becoming disgusted with the man the mirror reflects People offer to help but I choose to neglect This battle involves three people, me, myself, and I And don't try to interfere, you might die Its time to fight fire with fire Time to choose whats right over desire I can't act off this anger, I can't let it control I can't let it keep digging me in this unescapable hole I know I can win, the good in me will never fall Anger can knock me down but I'll still crawl I will find my escape Before its too late © 2014 Joey Martinez |
