Anger

Yelling voices growing louder in the house
I am not scared or angry
Anger is not something I can feel
That’s not what I am
I am quiet, preserved, proper.
The fist hits the wall
I don’t flinch
Reaction is not something I can give
I was blessed with patience my mother says,
A curse to be sure
I watch the plate shatter
Broken pieces at my feet
“You useless piece of shit”
The world goes quiet
Anger is quieter than I thought
I beg for you to talk to me
Silence hits my face

Trigger warning: abuse, Domestic violence
