When I get angry and try to speak my mind, My voice gets shaky, and tears fill my eyes. The words get stuck inside my throat, And I'm so frustrated I start to choke. Others see my tears and think I'm sad, They see a "poor thing," not the anger I have. But the tears aren't for being weak at all, They're a signal that my feelings feel too tall. Am I really helpless like they all assume? Or is this just how my feelings find some room? This mix of anger and sadness inside, A common struggle that people hide.

"The wrong Emotion"
When I get angry and try to speak my mind, My voice gets shaky, and tears fill my eyes. The words get stuck inside my throat, And I'm so frustrated I start to choke. Others see my tears and think I'm sad, They see a "poor thing," not the anger I have. But the tears aren't for being weak at all, They're a signal that my feelings feel too tall. Am I really helpless like they all assume? Or is this just how my feelings find some room? This mix of anger and sadness inside, A common struggle that people hide.
