21st Century Gadget

I am the latest invention
I am the innovative piece of plastic that thousands of people spend their money on
I am the talk of the town 
I am the definition of fame
I am the king

I am now in your possession
You use me to talk to your buddies and surf the web
I am the most important thing in your life right now
Your thumbs are on my screen nonstop
You could not live without me
I am the answer to all of your problems

I am losing my popularity
The latest and greatest concoction is taking my place as the best toy you could ever own
My throne has been stolen
You are no longer pining over me but over the kidnapper of my high position
You still use me, but I am not that important anymore

I am now a tossed out phone
I am garbage
I am no longer the definition of fame
I am a disgraced king; a lost cause
I am old news; a thing of the past

I am history

I am a dead and lifeless 21st Century Gadget

Anger

Anger is like a pot of boiling water,
    bubbling up inside of you
Anger is like a giant snake,
    sneaking up behind you just waiting to strike
Anger is like a bad habit,
    that one you just can’t kick
Anger makes you feel as if your trapped in a cage,
    begging to be set free
Anger makes you feel like you’re locked in prison,
    doing anything you can to escape
Anger makes you experience a cold, dark,
    and dreadful sensation
Anger is like death;
    it has no mercy and doesn’t discriminate

Anger destroys you,
    slowly breaking you into pieces
It keeps picking away at you until you can’t put yourself together anymore
