Emotions
What is the point of emotions?
Get attached
Get hurt
Be alone
Get hurt
Emotions are a poison
And a cure
All at the same time
You can't live with them
But you can't survive without them
My jealousy
My anxiety
My depression
My envy
My lust
They destroy me
They widdle away at me
Making me feel like a monster
Making me feel pathetic
My joy
My hope
My faith
My trust
They shine a light
In my darkness
But they only last for a fleeting moment
Before they begin
Their destruction
All of these emotions
Spin in my head
And my heart
Constantly
24/7
And I can't shut them out
I can't shut them up
They are voices in my head
That battle to be in the spotlight
They make me weak
They make me strong
They tear me down
They build me up
What's the point of emotions?
When they seem like bad luck
It feels like a cruel joke
As they spin
And spin
And spin
In my head
The worst of them all though
Isn't one I have said
For the worst of them all
Is
