Tonight I'll fight beside my anger;
daring to scream these words I feel.
Admitting these, a heinous crime,
but release feels so surreal.

Tonight I'll cry with my sorrow,
lay my fears to rest a while,
and attempt to gather the tiny fragments.
Don't touch me - I'm fragile.

Tonight I'll bleed with my pain
until I am left drained and hollow.
I search for a feeling of contentment,
knowing I'll be better by tomorrow.

Tonight I'll speak my mind.
You are a stranger to me, no friend;
but your attention and silence comforts me,
until I may resume my life again.
