Rage

• Emily Mcquillan, Grade 8

• 2018

you sparked something inside of me
an emotion so ignighting
causing me to overthink everything
until there are only burns on me

rage ,fired by the pain
burning these emotions in my way
r-a-g-e, internally burning me
this is what rage does to me

but now the singed skin is glistening
hear the fire spark as im listening
lungs filling with smoke now im suffocating
r-a-g-e will be the death of me

and now the smoke is rising
emotions are hightening
words are now blisturing
this feels so overwhelming
