Emotion


Emotion,

Like a thief in the night can suprise,

While it reveals whats really inside.

Emotion,

Birthed by past experiences, trials, or victories,

or powered by future expectations, fears, or insecurities

 

Emotion,

Can rule us from inside or out,

some stay even keel others just pout

 

Some wear their heart on their sleeve,

you can tell how they feel by the way that they breathe,

And you'll know how they feel until they decide to leave,

Any rough day and you know that they grieve.

 

Others keep their emotions bottled inside,

They'll take off the cap and pour em out when they cry,

Or be shaken up and explode in due time,

But until then no one is allowed inside.

 

Using all logic and no heart maybe theres no such thing.

Maybe logic is part of what our hearts bring

<p>Beautiful. When you have a talent of this kind don&#39;t lose it. Being able to express yourself and put you emotions to paper is a real gift. Most people today are hard and cold hearted. Your special. Don&#39;t waste this talent. And let no one tell you different.</p>
