Have You Ever

had so much to say
that your mouth closed up tight,
struggling to harness the nuclear force
coalescing within your words?

Have you ever
had so many thoughts
churning inside that you didn't
dare let them escape,
in case they blew you wide open?

Have you ever
been so angry that you
couldn't look in the mirror
for fear of finding the face of evil
glaring back at you?
