Unknown Emotion

Location

Imagine, living life to the

fullest,

without a care or worry in the

world.

Making the most of each day,

using the sun to guide your

way.

Now imagine, out of the blue,

a new emotion taking control of

you.

Against your will, you're pulled

into this ordeal.

You have no say as this unknown emotion eats your

insides away.

It's an uncontrollable occurence,

it causes you to seek

reassurance,

of who you are, because you

don't feel like that star

that people believe you are.

It takes a handle of your body

and soul,

it makes you feel as if you're

four years old.

But deep down inside you know

you still have that pride,

but every time it is time for it to

show,

this unknown emotion comes and steals it,

like a thief in the night, putting up a vicious fight

This emotion has almost taken control of your entire life,

but your perservering ambition has other things planned

for the road ahead.

So now this unknown emotion has died,

and it seems as if you have restored your pride.

Just like before, now that this emotion has gone out the door.

You can go back to making the most of each day

and hoping that this time, this is the way things will stay.
