Caring for your anger

You don’t need a reason for your anger,

you don’t need a reason for your suffering,

for your crying,

for your breaking.

You don’t need to justify feeling unhappy,

you don’t need to justify feeling lonely,

it’s okay for you to feel this way,

it’s okay for you to feel astray.

You don’t need to explain,

when your pain is overwhelming,

the best is to stay,

far from drowning.

Love your anger,

sympathize with your pain,

whether or not you know the reason for the way you are feeling today.

Know it is okay,

to feel far, far away,

from whatever people define as a good day.
