Letting Off Steam

We all have our own ways of letting off steam Some grow very angry and at those nearby scream Whilst others will punch you or kick at a wall The potential for anger that can lead to violence it is in us all. Some people their anger manage to suppress Though illness can grow out of bottled up stress In people who suppress their feelings cancer is known to grow And due to such an illness death is painful and slow. Some people their anger cannot seem to control And since anger can block out the light from the soul For assault and battery which is a serious crime In jail they are destined for to spend some time. By the actions we take and the things that we say We all let off steam in a different way And though with anger it never is easy to win Perhaps 'tis better for you to air it than keeping it in.
