I Am Angry

I am angry at the world 

I am angry at it’s injustice 

I am angry at America 

I am angry that we let this happen 

I am angry at everyone

Who voted away my rights

Who decided I didn’t matter

I am angry at so many things

But I haven’t done a thing

Because I am scared

I am scared of the consequences

I am scared of the reality 

I am scared of the truth

I shouldn’t be

But I am

I don’t know what’s stronger

My fear

Or my anger

What do I let prevail

What do I let overpower 

Do I let anger take the reins

Do stop hiding 

Yell and scream at the cruelty and injustice 

Of our world

Or

Do I cower and let fear consume me

Do I build up walls of armor

For my safety 

Could I do something

People would find insane

Could I do it 

I am angry 

I am scared

I think I am more angry

Than scared
