Rage

Rage

A Poem by Tomi

I often felt inferior but barely showed my complex/

words can't really describe: it's complex/

i blew things out of proportion and took words out of context/

i guess i lost my way, yes: that i confess/

A wise man said a silent fool is perceived as wise/

i found an escape in silent pain and writing/

And sometimes a tear would fall from my eyes/

but the victory is worth all the fighting/

this light of mine is no longer little/

everything changes when you grow up/

not when you're 13, 18, 40 or no longer single/

everything changes when you grow up/

fear and all his friends still come knocking/

but i've erased the writings off that page/

the windows to doubt are all broken/

but sometimes silence is my only form of rage/

Silence had it advantages and can destroy you from the inside out. I learn better to say nothing if all I have is negative. Positive thoughts and kind words are always needed. I like the thoughts and wisdom to be learn from the poem. Rage lead to no-where. Thank you for the outstanding poetry.
