Soul Stopping Anger

Raging fire and hellish need

By Jessica TaylorPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

This is so stupid and you are so naive

I've thrown so many hints and still you don't receive

I sit here, keeping closed my eyes

Praying I don't have to hear any more of your lies.

Promise after promise that has been spoken

And each one shattered and broken.

I cannot hold to my end of this deal

When my time is what you steal.

So the importance of making this house a home

Is something I guess I must do alone.

I am tired at the end of every night

And lately I want to give up on this fight.

I feel under appreciated and am constantly angry

And all because of the way you treat me.

There are things I long for, things I need

Dreams I am following by planting each seed

But, how can I fulfill them and stay brave

When all you do is treat me like your slave.

You promised me, you told me that you wanted this

But, now I see the truth.... I know what this is.

So when the time comes for our ties to sever

I will back away from this hopeful endeavor.

My deepest desire is to be able to help people; since I am too shy to be a professional speaker I decided that writing is my next best option. However, I do love the feel of the pen upon the page and the clicking of my keys on my keyboard.
