Breathe

Inhale, exhale

my anger won't let me do this.

Think before you speak

my rage does not let me.

Control your emotions

my frustration forces itself out.

I watch his little face crumble in to a cry

But the words I have spoken, and the tone I have given has already stung him.

I walk away, anger still residing,

the guilt becomes overwhelming.

I cry alone. Can I replace it all with hugs and kisses?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Please don't remember me this way.

I am trying to find patience everyday.

My memory won't let this fade.

I trap my anger.

I breathe.
