Heart beating too hard
Blood boiling too hot
Stomach tied too tight
Chest fighting just to breathe
Body begging to release this beast
Cold roar of a tempers flaring and fists flailing
Arduous rage of ridicule and self-appointed righteousness
Stinging bite of bold disrespect and disregard
Offensive odor of assumptions and judgments
Spirit screaming to release this beast
Those who bruised my skin and attempted to crush my power
Those that stole my virtue without an ounce of remorse
Those barking unrealistic demands and labeled me difficult
Those with condescending comments about my choices
Those whom claimed friendship only to gossip behind my back
Shame on you
I choose to release this beast
Because my bruises have healed and I am empowered
Because my worth is not founded on what others took
Because my loved ones welcome the challenge of my enthusiasm
Because my choices are my choices and I have not sinned
Because my love for others is not hindered by pettiness
Less my shame
I choose to release this beast
