frightened

so much anger
so much pain
i don't know
from where it comes
it is directed at me
but
it is not about me
and all this time i have been a fool
trying so hard
to stick to your rules
trying so hard to
make you feel better
but all this made
it worse
so now
i can say nothing at all
i can say nothing at all
anything i say
will be held against me
in a court of law
where you judge all
where you have judged the world
from your lofty home
i hope you are happy there
now
for climbing this mountain
gets me
nowhere
i'll stay at
the bottom
now
