  1. i always lose mine when people i love abandon me, or i get the sense that they are. i think i fear being unloved the most of anything in the world, and my immediate reaction is anger to hide that fear.

    thankfully, i don’t often have occasion to lose it.

  9. I have a temper. It’s uncontrollable. This rage just comes over me, and I lose all self control. Some call me crazy, but I’m not. Just concerned. Concerned with issues, the world, society..the list is forever continuing. I’ve tried to seek help, but what can anyone do? I like the way I am, but others don’t. I’m not violent; just angry. All of the time. But it’s ok; I’m happy with how I am. Angry but happy. That’s not a problem, is it?

  25. is like a tidal wave. I cannot control it, I know it’s coming, can feel that it’s coming, about to sweep over me and everyone around me and there seems to be nothing I can do to stop it. I am flooded and overcome by it. Change seems impossible.

  26. Temper. The characteristics of a person makes up their temper or temperaments. I like to think of people as having a million facets, like diamonds. Some sparkle, some just glow dully, but they all have a kind of luminosity that is the essence of being alive. It is their tempers shining through themselves.

  27. Mine is out of control. Sometimes I get so upset about a relatively unimportant event that I will just shriek at the top of my lungs. It doesn’t help anything, and it doesn’t make me feel any better. I can feel it coming too, like a tidal wave

  28. I have been tempered as I venture down

    so far down

    in to the Stygian pool like Dante’s Dante or Milton’s Satan I have become the screaming baying hounds in Sin’s womb

    burned away

    I have been tempered by the icy inferno’s unrepentant winds

  29. By spending some time in the ER,
    I was able to confer with myself
    and realize that I’ve been too
    often stewing in hot water. In order to
    alleviate my blistery woes,
    I froze in the sleet of the window.

  30. The tantrums lasted up to four hours, sometimes… and they couldn’t leave me alone. I would destroy breakable objects, tear fabrics, and turn bright red in the face, crying to the point of dehydration. The worst time was when mom had to put me in a freezing cold shower with all my clothes on to “cool me down.” Better than the alternative they always threatened: throwing me in a snowbank.

  31. Is good and we all have, temper will do for anyone and i love the temper in me and in you. What will i be when i loose it? Does it define us?

  32. My temper is bad, I get angry quite easily and I have a very limited patience. My friends and family are able to put up with this, and I am very grateful for this. I can’t help but love them, because they still love me despite my temper and other negative attributes that outweigh my positive. I wish that I could show them how much I love them, but I can’t. And so, I work hard to earn good grades and to get into a good college so that they could see that their loved paid off. So that, I would not disappoint those around me. So that, I will not be a failure, but a pride to the family.

  33. something I have and wish to lose. angry, sad huh fear ! A out burst of feeling

  34. He had a temper on him. It was nasty, brutal even. But that was normal. When he got mad, oh boy did you have to watch out. It was what happened to me. I remember the day clearly. The day when he -really- lost it.

  35. this is when someone gets mad, or Tinie has one too but its spelt differently.. ive got one of these but it makes me sad and i wish i didnt. its also the beginning of a word which measures the heat/coldness of a room.

  36. I just get bad temper sometimes. I’m often not in the mood to do anything due to my bad temper. It’s annoying but I just can’t help it. It sucks!

  37. its funny how temper can really change your perspective towards life. one moment you are happy and everything seems to be moving smoothly and the next moment you are angry on someone and you think you life’s all fucked up. but I think its better to enjoy life as it is rather than complicating it because of some crappy people and their crappier comments.

  38. Goodness, what a great word for today. When I got a letter from an old friend telling my why she hasn’t written for ages, and in the middle of the usual twaddle about work and new sheds she hinted that there are dramas at home but she’s not going to tell me as she and her partner haven’t even talked about it yet!

  40. wild thing. tantrums and wild slumpering tempestuous tumult. Some tempers are good, others bad, ugly, etc. but a temper on its own is always anger. Why?
