The Emptiness Of Anger
burning in the energy I curse
angry feelings beset me
I feel ineffective
like I'm nothing, really
I don't seem to matter much to you
divining the light I see
you scoffing at my pain
what a greedy delight my sorrow
Sadistic without cause
you take the happiness I feel
and replace it with shadows
I can feel the emptiness of it
a beauty of a world to behold
but I may not touch it
the love I seek evades my honesty
so I wrestle with echoes
finding love to be void
and made only for the foolish
I sink into my grief feeling trapped by you
I cannot escape you
you took the joy I felt
and gave me contentious emotions
all to prove how cold you could be

Anger serves its purpose.
Use it if you need to.
No one should make you feel belittled and low.
Love can be foolish, the right person makes it worth it.
If someone is dumb enough to be this way to you: RUN, SOOO FAST.
That is the exact kind of person that will have you doubting yourself and manipulating every situation you're in. I've been there. Run.
It's beautiful souls like yours that always pay the price.

hello beautiful poetess thank you most graciously for the very kind comment and advice I think at the root of things I'm afraid it's me... that there is something about me that makes people in my life act like this but then again my circle is small it is my husband and his family and they feed off each other when it comes to being mean to me...I will deeply consider what you've said 💕

Please stay safe.
When I was with the person that made me feel like this, I was so scared of leaving. I didn't think I could.
It was hard for a long time after, but looking back, I realize the hardships I faced when leaving and struggling to get back on my feet....was the price I paid to see my current view.
I learned a lot, it left scars, I'm scared of love (but crave it so deeply that it literally hurts).
It isn't necessarily you, it is more that old saying "We accept the love we think we deserve"
You'll never feel you deserve more without loving you more...and it seems that you are face-to-face with a person that is hellbent on making sure you won't love yourself more.
Please, know your worth. Your heart is beautiful & precious.

Feeling anger and at times helplessness was my lot in the past. I went through many tough times, buty I managed. I walked out on one relationship because of him and his family. Good read and very relatable dear Crimsin. however if there's something precious to salvage, hold on to that.

All I can say to this, Brenda, is that you deserve all things good & beautiful. There's too much purity of spirit in you to believe otherwise. I very much understand the feelings you're conveying here. Much love

Anger is one letter, D, short of Danger; yet it is a powerful teacher. Hugs and love Oral

Anger indeed serves a purpose; however, it can become a perpetual red light that keeps you rooted in one spot if not released. Unresolved anger breeds resentment, bitterness, and spite. I see none of that in you, so you're refusing to become the monster you hate. Instead, you're looking toward the east where the light rises each day to offer you renewed hope and beginnings.

Those last two lines I'm afraid ring true to many of us, especially for me. The desire of some to display power over others feels like a game that will never end.
Powerful spill.
Powerful spill.
