Anger inside


from the ABC set Confessions of the dead

It's so hard to imagine
a feeling stronger than love,
well there is one
and it overwhelms you,
in some cases you feel strong
in others, weak.

It's hard to get rid of this feeling
it plagues you,
rots away at your inside.
The feeling is anger
and i keep mine bottled inside,
but i'm not angry at others
i'm angry at myself
for never saying the things i want to
when i need to.

But there was one i was angry at,
so angry i did a stupid act,
then one day they asked
"why are you so angry"
So i told them,
your words leave their marks

I like this poem, but I do think it's worth the effort to spell correctly, it actually detracts from the poem, do you have spellchecker?, (I depend on mine!) in written work it is important that you say what you mean or the whole point of the poem is lost.
