Minds Fire

This is not because I misunderstand,
not because theres something wrong with my mind.
This is not because of my emotions
not because I took it too far this time!

The truth is bottled up inside-
so far deep and Never let free.
For so long I considered others
and Never wanted them to be upset like me.

Yet at some point in life you must see
you must be able to open your own eyes.
The things you do, the words you say
will come back and haunt You one day.

Lashing out in simple frustrations
never considering where the ending will take us.
Yelling, insulting, demanding, and disrespecting.
All of these will eventually leave...
         even the best ones... unprotected.

The human heart can only hold
its weight worth of happinesses in gold.
That leaves so little room for the hurt...
that gets injected through the burning cuts.

Shutting down is no longer an option.
Tuning away has only worked for so long.
The false smiles and pretend words...
can no longer stand against these hurts.

The Mind now controls, and is filled with fire.
The words that now flow will reflect the hearts desire.
Lashing Back has finally come.... but always with a price,
always leaving victims on the run.

Reflect now, and look deep within
for the answers you seek,
        and realize--
             a person can only withstand,
                      just so much in life...
before they claim it their own again.

Standing tall agaist lifes winds... setting them free
to dwindle the minds now raging fires....
