My Anger

This free verse poem was written for my pure catharsis. I was angry at my friends for a situation none of us could control, and while I still felt like I had a right to be upset, my feeling of guilt was much larger and I questioned how I could even begin to be angry with them. These conflicting emotions tore me up but I had no way of expressing them; so in my stressed contemplation, I began to imagine my anger as a flame and how one would deal with it, if it was a physical property. The rest made sense to me. I began to write, hoping that this metaphor could help me express everything that I was feeling.

My art allows me to explain emotions I can't put to words and capture moments I can’t describe. When life moves so fast that my thoughts become meddled, I know I can use art and my creativity as an outlet. In the end, stepping back and seeing my indescribable feelings finally said, it is relieving.
