Stop offering me your poison anger
Stop tempting me to drink
Stop yelling for a second
So that I can think.
Stop forcing out words that aren't ready
Stop making them be spoken
Stop building the rage inside
So my self control isn't broken.
Stop being angry at the little things
Stop raising your voice so loud
Stop cornering me with my words
Because I am just too proud.
Stop acting like I should admit I was wrong
Stop pretending you're always right.
Stop cutting me off from my verbal defense,
So that I can't even fight.
And stop saying that I like arguing,
And stop saying that I have changed
And stop yelling that I'm disrespectful,
Because I love you and not this rage.
