Intensely,
Passionately,
Violently;
Her emotions
Are uncontrollable.
She doesn't know
How to express them
In anything other than
Explosions and outbursts.
She fights herself,
To control
The intensity,
The passion,
The violence.
She feels
Everything,
As if she were on fire.
And the only way to contain it,
Is to wall the flame off
With ice.
And so she seems cold,
Detached,
Uncaring,
Harsh;
Yet she is only trying
To maintain control
When she feels everything.
And the only way
To control feeling everything
Is to act as if you feel nothing.
And so,
She holds a cold exterior
Until she can't,
And she burns up.
