I'm mad because I'm angry I'm sad because I'm mad. These layers of my psyche Do go 'round and 'round my head. I've got shame about my blame. This messes with my brain. Emotions seem to push and shove Demanding to be known and loved. Their clanging, banging Sound deranging Of my inner life Displaying Hurt, unrest and discontent Not knowing how to circumvent, Or God forbid to feel through. Emotions have an end? Who knew?!
