Locked

Tiffany Brasuell 1985 (Texas)

Angry, pissed off
Bottled up, locked in
No way out, no vent, no filter
I want to scream, to beat, to break
It's useless, pointless
I'm ignored and alone
You don't care
There's nothing I can do
My body defeated from the stress
Still I do not matter
Am I truly mad at you
Or am I mad at myself
Why can't I find the key
I have to unlock this door
I have to free myself

About this poem

Pretty self explanatory. Just having a bad day and needed to vent,so I vented here.
