Mixed Emotions
My emotions, are like a potion mixed with the utmost care
Kind and cruel in a mix that’s hardly fair
To me or anybody who gets too near
They can hurt me and anyone I hold dear
Yet at the same time they can bring endless joy
That unconditional love like with a mother and her boy,
Or a father and daughter, or between two lovers
Who don’t need the world, just each other?
Just one another, grasping each other with grips so tight
That the only thing that could break it is loves own might
And I might in fact be the first to act
On my emotions so rashly, as a matter of fact
My pain and pleasure all come from this source
And I can’t break the habit with just sheer force
So I delve into myself and take a journey in my heart
Till I reach my mind and realize how far apart
The two places truly are, separated by their own dungeons
And mixed together to make my own emotional conundrum
Am I wrong, Am I a slave to these entities
Do I own them or do they own me,
Am I a slave to mental fallacies of happiness and joy and you love me so sincerely?
Or I’m I fooling myself in this tragedy, and living a life where there’s only me.
Noise in my mind drowning out thoughts like the ocean, Stuck in my own Mixed emotions
