269. Anger Speaks Poem by Jaden Knight

Undo these chains and let me out
release me like I feel you should
you know what will happen if I break loose
you will not be able to stop me when I do
and I will likely be your death

You can't kill me without killing yourself
you can never starve me
I'm always feeding
every frustration I devour and get stronger
no matter how you try to avoid it

You feel you can beat me
but you don't know how
I know I am not truly immortal
but do you really want to push me back
when I have given you a purpose to live

I will not undo your chains you belong there
at least until you are less of a threat
though you break free occasionally
I trap and bind you again
is it really worth trying to get out

I've held you back for so many years
I know I can not kill you yet
I can try to weaken you over time
until you mostly fade away

For now I'll leave you imprisoned
and once the frustrations begin to drain
hopefully you will begin to starve
and though you may never truly fade
you will no be able to harm
