I’m not mad I’m just passionate


 
My eyebrow raised
My body filled with rage
Biting my lip 
Ready to state my case
But I don’t 
I sit back and take it
Daring to ball up my fist 
Feeling like an enraged bottomless pit
Now I’m uncomfortable 
My new approach for handling this well-known situation is incomprehensible 
As my breathing begins to weaken 
My heart starts speeding
I start thinking of everything except the everything that has meaning
Like “I HATE YOU” “YOU MEAN NOTHING TO ME” “GO TO HELL” “I NEVER LIKED YOU TO BEGIN WITH” “WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!”
Now my soul is reading 
Reading the words that my flesh have been feeding my mind from the beginning of time
The hate in my eyes
That keep my spirit paralyzed 
Fog is forming around me 
I can’t see
I can’t feel
I can’t think 
Not clearly....at least 
Because I’m ANGRY
YOU MADE A FOOL OF ME....again
