Contentment

Contentment

Anger deep inside of me.
It boils up like water on stove.
Yet it doesn't stop there.
It just keeps getting hotter.
I try to control it
and put it back down,
but every time I try to
the force with which it hits me
increases ten fold.
My mind can't take it anymore.
I just don't understand why I'm angry.
Is it because of family,
or is it school.
Maybe it is work,
yet it could be my girlfriend.
I cannot understand why any of them
would make me this angry.
Yet maybe it isn't them that's hurtin me,
instead it could be my own mind.
I'm the only one that has the ability
to cause myself so much greif.
I know now why I'm angry.
Now I just need to know
how to let it all out.
There are those around me
that really and truly love me.
So can I go to them?
Maybe so but I think not.
How about those who don't love me?
I think not again.
There is one though who is impartial.
He is my Lord and He comforts me.
He puts His arms on my shoulders
And whispers in my ear.
He tells me to not be so angry
for he knows my heart
and feels my anger.
He tells me that if i let Him
He'll take it all away.
So why am I still holding on to it?
That's a mystery to me.
I think now I know how to let it go.
Christ come into my heart
and Christ cleanse my heart.
Lord make me whole
and Lord make me happy.
Take my anger and cast it away.
Lord with you in my heart
I can be nothing but content!
