The Furnace Within

O' God, my temper is rising, the furnace within is raging,
I cannot hold it any longer, the desire to release the pressure within,
The restraint let loose on some unexpected soul,
The heart on our sleeve expressed within a moment,
Reason had packed it's bags and left the room,
The rawness of emotions splayed open for all to see.

O' God, give me the understanding of what fuels this fire,
Allow Reason to unpack this unnecessary resource,
and to find a use, other than the selfishness of my being,
Let my heart and mind find balance, let them feed from each other!
open heart AND open mind, together eternally...
O' God, grant me this peace.................................
