I didn’t know how to

Feel.

To be sad,

Or to be

Mad?

The things you said

Left my heart dead,

The names you called me

Were so cruel…

I was mad,

Angry,

Rage and fury

Taking over.

I wanted to scream at you,

But deep down, I knew,

My voice was sure to crack

With wretched sobs.

I was sad,

Hurt,

Pain and heartbreak

Taking over.

I wanted to cry,

But I knew you’d ask why

I was so weak,

So I pushed the feelings down.

My pride refused

To let me cry,

But my heart wouldn’t

Let me scream.

Stuck with bottled up emotion

Bubbling deep inside me,

Though I just sat there

And took your hate.

Sad…

Mad…

Mixed emotion…

Sorrow…

Fury…

Burning inside,

Deep within me,

Where pain shall forever reside.
