The Sorrowful Breaking Point ~ Marlize van der Merwe

When is breaking point needed?
You feel like breaking and shouting
You feel like your anger is slowly building
Ready to explode
Not with angry words being let out
But with tears
Your anger can not be let out with words
Nor with silence
Dropping as a acid firm
Drip. Drip. Drip.
Hitting the closest would surface
Building the acid tears into a pool
A sorrowful acid pool

It is done
The damage is done
The breaking point is complete
Broken inside but fixed out
The final hurting point has come

Anger ~ Khayelihle Majozi

I am  a bull
Winter's Month
Cold and Dry
June

I am heartbroken
Eating ice-cream from the outcome
Of disappointment
I am a bull
I am a raging truck

Music just might be the only cure
I have no need for love

I have my life
I am shielded by my horns
I am a bull
