Tears pouring down
Like raindrops from a tree as the wind blows
The storm has passed
But still the rage builds inside
Not rage but frustration
At never feeling loved or wanted
Always sacrificing for other
What is desired by you
And then lighting strikes
And the frustration and anger explode into flames
That seem to burn for only an instant
Then silence descends
And the world is seemingly tranquil
But deep inside, a spark still burns
Forever

Beautiful work!

It matters not how strait the gate;
How charged with punishments the scroll;
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
--W.E. Henley
