Anger's Embrace
Anger curls its tendrils around me,
it envelopes me whole,
strokes me tenderly.
It forms an impenetrable wall,
a shield of sorts,
to keeps me safe and sound.

and hits for me,
protects me from my foes.
Rage filled screams,
cover the sound of falling tears.
Sadness sits beside me,
gently wipes my sea.
Anger extinguishes my fear,

Your Unknown Friend
There's so much sadness
Stored in your body.
