My muscles twitch along their length as words gain volume in my brain. And my temper exerts its strength spewing insults fraught with disdain. When anxiety warps what's real, the innocent suffer my wrath. A blind rage distorts how I feel, and it's not safe to cross my path. Until anger leaves me alone I can't begin to feel your pain. For anger turns my heart to stone and drives me completely insane. Hurling hurts; I'm right in your face, but back off on hearing your cries. For love quickly takes anger's place as tears begin to fill your eyes. If I lose you, I'll have lost all and thus flounder in sorrow's wake. For I can't survive such a fall, it is more than my heart can take. (Quatrain) 1/23/2016

"And my temper exerts its strength spewing insults fraught with disdain". That is some ugly temper!

Anger, I believe is really a defense mechanism to shield our own pain. You have conveyed the unwanted results it brings about very well, Emile. Elaine

Thanks Arthur, I've mellowed out throughout the years, but I had quite the temper when I was much younger and less refined. It is nice to hear from you my friend. Emile.

In anger we almost always say or do something to hurt the people we love the most. Fallout from caring, just expressed in anger not hate. Very well written.
