Intense
Strong
Loud
It’s vaguely angry
It’s screaming in my head
It’s clenching my jaw
It’s swelling my heart
Loud
Strong
Intense
It’s definitely angry
Or maybe it’s passionate
But it’s there
It’s DEMANDING to be felt
If I could use a song to describe it
One For The Money
By Escape The Fate
It claws at my heart in rapid succession
Urgent
Alarming
Fast
It makes me want to scream
Scream at everyone
Everything
You don’t give a ****
And it will all fail
I won’t be quite
I won’t stand still
My legacy will be a red streak
In the black and white life you live
I DEMAND to be heard
I DEMAND to be free
I DEMAND to be myself
If a color were to associate with it
It would be red
Red as the burning embers
Red as the rising sun
Red as the blood in my veins
Red red red
I still can’t find a single word for it
Passionate
Strong
Red
Fast
Alarming
Loud
Intense
Urgent
Angry
­I can’t pick one because they’re all there
Each in equal succession
