All this anger inside me, <br />How should I release the pain? <br />Just sitting back and watching, <br />All my tries go to vain. <br /> <br />The mirror on the wall, <br />Shows what I’m supposed to be. <br />How can I live inside this cage? <br />I need to set myself free. <br /> <br />Stuck inside a world I hate, <br />Where am I to go? <br />What am I to do? <br />Have to accept this as a game of fate. <br /> <br />Pawing at these merciless walls, <br />Crying, screaming, taunting me. <br />I need to go, I need to run. <br />I need to flee. <br /> <br />Cages, bars, captivity, <br />These walls tighten around me. <br />What to do? Where to go? <br />All this pain surrounds me. <br /> <br />Burning deep inside, <br />But a happy face for all. <br />I try to set myself free, <br />But every time I fall. <br /> <br />All the happy people around me, <br />The pain inside me is heeding. <br />The stupid lies and the fake smile, <br />While deep inside I’m bleeding. <br /> <br />Now I have given up, <br />No more trying. <br />I can not do this anymore, <br />No more crying. <br /> <br />The past whipping at me, <br />Bringing back memories forgotten, <br />I tried to let go, <br />But here I lie….rotten.<br /><br />Ridah Ellahi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/anger-109/
