BURNING BRIGHT

Anger can burn red.
Red as the sky at sunset.

An emotion so hot.
It bubbles to the surface.

It can control your mind.
Take over your soul.

You can try to control it.
To stamp it down.

Some people cause it.
Without a backward glance.

Their selfish ways.
Their callous attitudes.

A fury ignites inside.
A fire burns bright.

As bright as the sky above.
A reflection of my tormented soul.
