The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

I wrote this a couple years ago, and it keeps showing up on my computer in odd files.

 

 

Anger

the anger i carrie around

like a big ball and chain

everywhere i go it still the same

 

it likes to hide deep inside

and i think that its gone

and it pop up at that time

 

it sits and festers until I can't

take it no more and i turn it lose

to cause trouble once more

 

sometimes i think i must be insane

to have this much anger

and feel so much pain

 

days like today i should just sleep away

so no one can see the anger in me

it so hard to control i just have to let go

 

i pray each day that it will just stay away

and give me a break from getting angry today

to let me rest and give my mind a break

very powerful and to the point.

 

Since we ARE a writing guild dedicated to growth...

It could be slightly reworked to tighten the wording, for example in:

it likes to hide deep inside

and i think that its gone

and it pop up at that time

 

did you mean:

It likes to hide deep inside

and I think that it's gone

but it pops up at that time

 

the "it's" shows you meant "it is" while using "but" instead of "and" shows contrast to what you just said - thinking gone but still there.

 

Little things like that will give the Gentle Reader the full impact of what you've felt.

 

Good job!
