Feeling Poem by Lizelle 'Leasel' Martins

I have this feeling
I have this indescribable feeling
I have this kinda weird feeling
I have this feeling inside

Quietly I sit, thoughts just wondering
No specific thought I might add
And suddenly I smile
A elated smile I can’t even explain
But this smile, this joy
Is sadly not shown
I seem to smile within
Within my soul
Within my heart
An inner smile

My heartbeat is racing
There’s a tingle in my heart
A tingle in my body
It seems to have awaken
All of my inside, All that I am
All that I wish I were
This feeling, this wonderful feeling
Wants to surface, wants to reach out
Wants to lead me...
Lead me to a happy place
A place we all call our safe haven

But this feeling
Sadly only lasts a few
I’m trying to figure out...what exactly I was thinking about
But nothing comes to mind
Maybe I should just let it be
And not try so hard
And maybe than
Maybe than it will come....and stay

When it comes again...
I will embrace it
With all of my being
Fear, doubt...will be unknown
I will take hold of it
As we both began
Began my journey..
Our journey into a new life
