My Current Name is Anger


Hello, my current name is Anger.
And for quite some time now I've been trying to change it. 
At this point of 11:21pm I am not sure
Not sure as to if my name shall remain Anger
Or as to if I shall change it back. 
Let me tell you about myself...
I am currently Anger, at some teenage age, getting what most call an average education at some unimportant school
I am surrounded by many individuals who have not seem, to notice or care that my current name is Anger.
I am surrounded by many individuals who have not noticed that I have changed  my ways and smile. 
11:21pm and still I am not sure, who I shall be or what I shall do? 
Do I ask for help?
Do I sit quiet and watch the clock turn day into night?
Do I remain with my current name; Anger?
Let me tell you about myself...
I am currently unhappy and aware of it.
I smile the same fake smile everyday and fool those around me
I even fool myself from time to time.
The clock stuck again 11:36pm 
I still currently am named Anger.
Do I rename myself by  myself?
Do I watch as those around me act and act the same? 
Do I remain with my current name; Anger?
Let me tell you about myself... 
I am currently out of words as to what I shall share with you.
I believe you know all you need to know
One random fact I shall share with you about you- 
You are beautiful! You are amazing! You will make a difference
Just in addition,
My current name is Anger.
And as the clock once again strikes and says 11:42pm like it did yesterday and the day before that-
I am still not sure as to if I shall remain Anger
Or as to if I shall change it back
Change it back and be a Goriah.
But for now as the clock strikes 12:01am turning night back into day 
I guess you can call me by my current name;
Anger.
