Mine Poem by Jessica L Taylor

So this is life.
Sometimes, i look at it differently than what i did before.
And other times, i see it just the same.
But its never really the same,
things change everyday.
Sometimes i feel happy, and then others
i feel sad.
And other times, i just feel like me.
The same,
I think.
But if i do feel sad,
others will feel happy,
and others will feel angry,
and others will feel numb.
But whatever i feel,
i look for empathy,
i want you to be happy when i am,
and sad when i am,
and angry.
I want you.
But when i feel happy, i sometimes see you sad,
and when i'm mad i sometimes see you laughing,
and this makes me feel....
But one thing i cannot do is make you feel.
And nobody can make me feel.
My emotions are my own, and i will do with them what i wish.
They are mine,
and i am free.
To do what i want, and not what you please.
