I have a hard time writing about anger because ... Anger is just sadness in a lower octave Anger is a knot between the shoulder blades Anger is a loud voice in an even louder room Anger is a distant daydream gaze Anger is a fire sustained by silence Anger is hearing your voice in another body Anger sounds a lot like "Sorry, I've been busy" Anger is realizing busy really means uninterested Anger is thinking you are in charge of your reaction Anger is knowing you're a breath from bursting Anger is breathing shallow to hide the shake Anger is saying things you don't mean Anger is not saying things you do mean Anger is a fickle thing Anger is just heartbreak wearing a cowards face
