a poem about the way anger can take hold when problems go unresolved.

what do you do when

you’re angry with a ghost?

where do i put the fury i hold

for the guardians who left me behind?

why am i parentless

when all i’ve wanted

is apparent?

how do you handle the understanding

that what you need is something

you will never get?

why did they bring me here

only to jump ship?

what good does all the damage

that they did to me

do me?

is it bad i sometimes wish

i could erase them from

my memory?
