I am holding back to the fight within me,
trying to make peace.
I had lost everything I hold dear to me,
now I want those things back.
My life once had been grand.
The fight inside me is hard to control.
The rotten air that captures me and holds me down,
from the people who have wronged me.
The words so pure,I answer my revenge.
The fairness in my words, that I fight with
My answer not in violence,
Words, my answer is found.
Upon my lips lay a heavy burden,
no apology will be accepted.
Fighting back with words stronger than violent swords.

This is good. I can feel the emotion that you have. I like that you make mention that your life was grand, but don't relish in the past or make excuses for why you are different now...just accepted. wow..great.
