(e)motion.

Emotions are what base the weak from the strong,

To follow your gut from right and wrong.

Emotions set you and me far apart,

fear deep down separating at the start.

 

Emotions are said to be related through the heart,

but in the head is where they're pieced together,

aching thoughts left to whether,

taking your chances doing what's for YOUR better?

 

Emotions slice us, dice us and eat us whole,

it only determines who's going to fill that hole,

Who's going to be the 'other half' your sacred soul.

See emotions can be passed, forged, devoured, and restored,

But first things first they cannot be ignored.

So follow me and ignore those pains,

the aching from your chest leading to your brain,

that desire to love is just hell sent from heaven above.
