the only colors i see are grays. they cover everything, dripping from the top of my vision, coating everything in dull tones that just piss me off further. the gray shrouds my vision, and the only thing i feel is rage. people say red is an angry color, but its not. red is a calming color. tones of gray are horrible. blue gray, gray, light gray, dark gray, greenish gray, it doesn't matter. they all take over everything and i cannot stand it. it just adds to being stuck in my own body, unable to control anything i say or do, and i hate it. i hate it i hate it i hate it i hate it i hate it i hate it i hate it. i hate the color gray. my leg shakes, its normal light orange becoming a gray. my own voice a dark speckled gray completely different from my normal mint green and blue. every sound is gray, everything is gray. there is nothing but gray and anger. but to me, those are the same thing.
