#Im writing this at work in cursive so I don't tear through the paper

I'm an angry person.
I have rage in my heart and spite in my bones.
I am born of it.
I spit fire from my tongue and relish in the burns.
But I know restraint. I know when to cast aside emotion for the sake of progress.
I seethe to see others do not.
But I know restraint.
I know to spit fire would only breed more conflict.
So I remain silent,
and let my fire burn me instead.
And I remain silent if only to stop from screaming at the world for being unfair.
But I know restraint,
and while my fingers shake and turn blue at their creeping frost, I burn from inside.
I wonder which of us will destroy me first.
