My Feelings
like a dam just waiting to break
My Thoughts
like a swirl just waiting to spiral
I either feel too much
or think too much
Others’ feelings
like a river flowing
Others’ thoughts
like a soft blow
It’s balanced
they don’t feel too much or too little
they don’t think too much or too little
just… enough
I feel too much
I think too much
I’m too much
Or is the world too little?
“You’re too sensitive”
Maybe I just feel deeply
Is that a curse?
A gift?
Both?
Like a double edged sword
making me weak and strong
Emotions and thoughts
two things that make us human
two things that need to be balanced,
yin and yang
That balance harder to find
than a needle buried deep in a straw bale
Who is in control?
Who is right?
Me? My thoughts? My feelings?
Everything and nothing?
Maybe I’m the dam and the river
Maybe I’m the swirl and the soft blow
And maybe nobody has found the needle
