--Madison, WI
Emotions, there are plenty.
They differ in variety.
We hold them in,
We let them out
Like turning on a water spout.
We love
We laugh
And then we cry.
We steal glances
Then we sigh.
We think
We feel
We burst with pride
And empty zeal.
Upon first glance
The world seems pure.
But when we touch,
We’re so unsure.
We hide in the shadows
Afraid of fear.
The reasons why
Are so unclear.
We’re Spartan
With our feelings,
Afraid to let them show.
But this is life
With time to grow,
To quench our thirst,
Let feelings flow.
With arrogance
We mock the soul.
We’re mesmerized
By greedy goals.
How to listen
We don’t know.
Fire crackles
And winds blow.
We’re so deceived
By earthly gains.
Who am I?
At last remains.
Upon my brow
The sweat appears.
I tremble with remorse
At long lost years,
For having cried
Those silent tears.
And now I gaze
Upon the stars.
I’m no different
Than they are.
I have a light
Which now shines through.
My naked soul
Appears to you.
