I try...

I try and stay happy
No can hurt me but me
Remember?
I try to be...so strong
My emotions controlled by defensive armour
Of forgetting...of imagining ... of going away
I try and not let them get me
Between my corners and hard places
I try and remain free – from the gut feeling of anger
I try not being angry – at myself – at them – I try
For anger is the killer passenger on a plane
I try and not dream irrationally – for dreams can be detrimental
I try - to write my problems away
Flatten my rage to a piece of paper
Stored outside my heart
Words and my soul apart
