Poet Introduction
“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.” -Marilyn Monroe
Choke
My vision is blinded by rage. You’ve crossed me for the last time. For years I have held my tongue. I can’t even speak. My voice is choked with anger. Why do people think they can walk on me? I can’t live like this. I’m done trying to please everyone. I don’t care anymore. I don’t care if I get in trouble. I’m not playing nice anymore. You pushed me too far. Now no one can save you from me. My hands close around your neck and is squeezed. You squirm and wiggle, trying to get free. I only laugh and watch as your eyes start to close. Choke.

They believed you weren’t going to hurt me. So did I. But we were both wrong it seems. However they did tell me what to do to you. Oh yes, they told me.

Words of anger
Bruised and scarred
Eternally lost
Always crying
Trembling with rage
Ever lasting hatred
Never giving up
Don't turn your back on me
Only get one shot
Won't last lone
Now you lay at my feet
Here I am
Always waiting for hope
Tired of your words
Even now I hear your words
Fear
Ignorance
Gauge
Hatred
Tired of lies
Eternally lost
Always crying
Trembling with rage
Ever lasting hatred
Never giving up
Don't turn your back on me
Only get one shot
Won't last lone
Now you lay at my feet
Here I am
Always waiting for hope
Tired of your words
Even now I hear your words
Fear
Ignorance
Gauge
Hatred
Tired of lies
