Emotions

Emotions

My definition?

Something that is

Powerful

Extreme

And difficult to control

It has the ability

To make you feel

Like the happiest person

On Earth

But at the same time

It could tear you apart

Do I like it?

Yes and no

I want to feel

When things are good

Everything seems so perfect

I find myself

Smiling

Giggling

For no reason

Even though I still have

Problems

They seem insignificant in comparison

Perhaps,

It was only

A temporary distraction

But at that moment,

Life

Feels great

Yet,

When things are bad

I wish

I cannot feel

I hate

Being at the mercy of

My emotions

It makes me feel

Irrational

Weak

And stupid

You know that feeling

When you are so attached?

To someone

Who no longer feels the same?

You know

You should let go

Because

You are holding onto nothing?

But despite knowing

You continue to put

Yourself

In the same

Vulnerable position

You get

Disappointed

Again and again

But you’re still

Hoping

Something will

Change

Although,

Deep down

You already know

You have to let go

 

Now, read it again. This time, in paragraph form.

Emotions

My definition?

Something that is powerful, extreme, and difficult to control. It has the ability to make you feel like the happiest person on Earth. But at the same time, it could tear you apart.

Do I like it?

Yes and no. I want to feel. When things are good, everything seems so perfect. I find myself smiling, giggling for no reason. Even though I still have problems, they seem insignificant in comparison. Perhaps, it was only a temporary distraction. But at that moment, life feels great.

Yet, when things are bad. I wish I cannot feel. I hate being at the mercy of my emotions. It makes me feel irrational, weak, and stupid.

You know that feeling when you are so attached? To someone who no longer feels the same? You know you should let go because you are holding onto nothing? But despite knowing, you continue to put yourself in the same vulnerable position.

You get disappointed, again and again. But you’re still hoping something will change. Although, deep down, you already know.

You have to let go.
