Our emotions make a huge part of what we are; it could be fear, anger, pride or it could be humility, happiness and love. we cant have all the good stuff but we can have most of the good stuff. i wrote this at a point in my life when i just decided to let go of some emotions and build the bad ones into good ones. it is a short poem really but it captivates a lot of message. Enjoy and please drop your comments below!
Thoughts like autumn leaves
Frail minded and easily pushed to deceit.
Feelings like flowers in the spring,
Fully bloomed with enough air to breathe
Tears like a waterfall, pouring out to form an ocean of disappointment.
Anger like a fool’s wrath, a smoke without fire
An easy ticket to die and a dark place to live
Happiness like a colored balloon, going high to the sky,
Doesn’t come down but gets popped eventually.
Time like an athlete aiming for gold, passes us and leaves us cold.
Humans like we are, filled with imperfection and mistakes.
Seek for what cannot be found and believe what we want.
Blindsided by our insecurities and curiosity that has led us to madness,
We ignore the only thing that can be found: ourselves
