Anger (for deverse open link 11/12/13)

 Anger

 I wonder

 what drives you?

 Rage, an unforgiving heart

 which trembles even

 at the thought of “weakness”.

So much easier to wage

a war on the world

as if strangers even know

what tragedy you’ve tasted

and was it really anymore bitter

than theirs’?

I cringe at the sound

of hate, between each

word you roar in your

isolation.

Still,

I wonder what your story is,

if it bleeds more than others?

Isn’t anger an anemic suture

for your wounds?

Aren't you cold
lonely, tired
wearing this crimson cloak?
