A warrior’s poem <br /> <br /> <br />My anger bleeds my innocence away <br />Until all I am left with is the silence like after a question <br />In my mind I carry the suggestion <br />That I might be better off laughing my anger away <br />But I feel better being angry and seeing <br />My anger like the blood red flag it seems to be <br />Seemingly I wave it around trying to attract the bull and take it by the horns <br />Like my life since I was born! <br />Anger is a symptom of my frustration and sadness <br />A symptom of my friendless madness <br />A cross I bear <br />A sword I use to strike and to parry <br />Those who would leave me at deaths door <br />Yes and that goes for friends and loved ones <br />Who know how to hurt me the most <br />And raise a toast to my despair <br />Push my buttons and then stare back at me <br />Waiting for an answer <br />One day my anger is all I will have left <br />Anger at constant disappointment at still having life and air to breathe <br />But still having nothing in which to believe in but <br />The anger to prove everyone wrong <br />An obstinate man who says I will and I can <br />Prove the buggars wrong <br />and stay strong <br />no matter what they say <br />my warrior spirit will carry me on <br />and my anger will burn in me <br />until I fear no pain <br />then I will be a light shining bright and I will fear no one!<br /><br />Daniel Hooks<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-warrior-s-poem/
