ANGER RISING
Carefully watching
Observing
While the anger builds
It festers beneath the surface
Like a dormant volcano
It shall awaken
Destruction shall soon follow
The winds of change blow
They blow against resistance
We were taught to forgive
But we never faced the problem
So we never truly grieved
The pain we never faced
Repressed memories
They poison the mind
Their effects shall be revealed
And this place will bleed
Fire and smoke
This world will choke
Because the problem
Was never faced
Carefully watching
Observing while the past
Threatens to engulf us
The anger rises awaiting to erupt

We are taught that problems must be faced first, but there are some problems that are difficult to look upon squarely. Thought provoking, well written piece!
