Intensity

by Rima - Leo

Intensity...
Many different faces does it reveal...

It is deep in the soul of those blessed
enough to recognize it
It is profound in the feelings it brings to
those who receive it without question
It can be an extraordinary gift for some,
and a bitter pill for others
It can take you to a heightened state of
mutual adoration when nurtured, but
brings you to a violent end if you fight it
It's zealousness is untamed at times, piercing
the heart of those who detest it
For those who are strong, it can be the most
passionate of all emotions
It is something only the powerfully secure
can understand
It's brilliance shines in the eyes of those 
who grasp it, but only blinds those who
reject it
It is a vivid reminder that only the
exceptional in heart can handle it
You can call me vehement, you can 
call me fervent
But do not call me which I am not
