Explosion

There's anger in me
A rage that can't be contained
I swallow hard
to suppress the flame
but the pressure 
fills me with pain
I can't even speak
for fear it may escape
so I sit quietly
teeth clenched tightly
with my lips closed firmly
but the force is too intense
it forces my jaw open 
separating my top teeth 
from my bottom
I fight against it
try hard to force it back
but its winning 
and then suddenly
against their will
my lips, lose their grip
they fall victim to my rage
and part relatively easily
and BOOM!!!
I explode
everything inside of me 
escapes with extreme intensity
part of me feeling free
the other part speaks regretfully
spilling anger, hate and shame
mixed with happiness, sadness and pain
its too late to take it back
that was a verbal attack.
