I Am a Molotov cocktail !

I was

Afraid to cry

I might start hurting

Afraid to hurt

I might start hating

But I could not stop

My soul from weeping

Tears that would not fall

Buried deep

Fear held 

Too strong

For too long

Afraid to speak

What voice, have I

Never asked for pain

What did you hope to gain

With pointed fingers 

And hushed whispers

Judging, condemning

A ragged wretch

You made me

Beware

A danger to all

A Molotov cocktail

Is me

Am I 

Drenched in misery

Set aflame by rage

Let me

Engulf you in 

Hot wild flames

Make you burn 

Feel my pain

In your cruel words

You taunted me

That I would not dare

To strike back

But be warned

Beware

I am a Molotov cocktail

And yes I would 

Dare !
