Let your rage explode
Do not try
To target or control it.
You are too wise
And real
And wonderful
To let it consume you
Leaving ashes in its wake,
So let it break,
For now.
Allow the ugly out,
Break, throw, shout
Until you can taste the angry blood
In the back of your throat,
Behind your teeth.
Underneath
all the anger is your healing,
It will surface,
You will start to come back.
You have to fully release the hate
Before you can let it go,
Otherwise, you will only purge it's shadow,
Leaving the real thing
Crouched in a corner of your hurting heart,
Waiting for a chance
To do more damage,
To destroy you.
