This burning anger
boils and grows
Ready to erupt
but when, who knows?
Caused by simple
neglect and ignorance
Leaving those standing
with no defence
All it takes
is manners to speak
But this lacking
week after week
So this burning anger
continues to grow
Always left waiting
for all to show

Thank you and it certainly does and many can testify to this. I’m very placid myself and never really rise to anger but when I do it is explosive because I am not used to being that way.
People either laugh at me when I do thinking it a joke or because they too are not used to it and are nervous. Some keep away. Strange isn’t it? I think people try to push buttons and see what happens and turn things around when it wasn’t what they expected.

you are right, I myself never really get angry, I’m a very patient person myself, and when i get angry at someone i just keep it in, and the problem is i just pile it on until i’m on the brimming point of no return during which i would explode, and usually in a physical manner since all i will see at that point is RED!, I’m trying to work on that though. 🙂

Bless you. Good luck with that. If people didn’t test us then we wouldn’t see red would we? Frustrating though. Maybe they’ll learn something from it about who they push and not to do it again?
Best thing to do is ignore them but not always the way is it?
Anyway, you’ll be fine; it’s the others that won’t be! 😉
