Anger Issues

I want to criticize you

for acting this way.

The anger,

the gritted teeth,

the clenched fists,

the same apology afterwards.

I want to yell at you

for being this way

until I realizeĀ 

I am the same as you

because you created me.

6th line stuck with me. Have endured the same thing before, too many times. Good, reflective piece.?

Love it... nothing wrong with a bit of self-reflection. Nice one.
