My Temper

When you have a crappy day, your personalized therapy is:
stuffing yourself with pizza or ice cream..
throwing anything fragile across the room..
driving around town so you can honk your horn all the way back...
pounding your fists on someone's chest..
sigh and stare at the ceiling 'til you fall asleep..
Whatever it is, it may not work on me.
you'll shed blood trying to calm me down..
well..maybe just a few scratches and a broken eardrum.
Nasty..uh-huh..
That was how I used to be..
until I met the person who changed my life.
Ok, so maybe i still get moody at times, but i'm much calmer now.
When i'm really hot in the face but want to control myself, i look at the trees and watch them sway gently from the wind. Something about the rustling of the leaves relaxes my mind and eases my body tension. Or maybe it soothes me at the sight of something strong allow itself to be moved by the wind. At night, It helps too to watch the moon just shine and break through the darkness. Even when it's not as bright as the sun, or as many as the stars, it still radiates a humble, yet wondrous glow. As if to say: I am alone in the dark, like you are when you're sad, and there's no one to cheer you up. I borrow light from the sun,like you borrowed life from the Lord. But I give what i receive, like you.. when your loved, and you love them back. Sometimes I hide behind the clouds, like you when you're upset or insecure. You want to be alone, but you still want to know that you're not. That's why I am here.

But still...
the best comfort...
the best therapy...
the best you're-not-alone..
the best you-are-loved..

...is a warm hug from the people you truly care about.
