anger gives me power
yet,
temporarily,
it sours my heart
my mantra is positivity and reality
through everything within me
that poses as contradictory

i pour everything in me
to see the light in the world
because i see much of it
in the people i love
the world continues testing me
in its devious ways
i deflect it my best
as i travel through the days

anger overcomes me
when i'm low and at my worst
i'm reimbursed when i come down
from the passionate hurt
because the pain gives me a clear eye
to the reality of the situation
accustomed to the cycle
and the fluctuation of sensations
through it all
the anger gives me depth and control
i'm one with it in a way
over time
it makes me stronger
within in its vulnerability-inducing haze

i unleash my anger through
my passions
it fuels my excellence
balance is my sustenance
in this world of extremes
i still have reverence for the deserved
and the Lord
praise the King
i have belief in myself
when i'm low and at my worst
and i know i can turn
the anger into my weapon
i know i'll make it work
