Strange Emotion Poem by Kate Warner

Strange Emotion



I have this feeling.
I can feel it right inside my chest.
It's so deep and unexplainable,
I take a deep breath,
Try and sort myself out.
But its still there, lingering.
What is it?
Why am I feeling this way?
All of a sudden,
This feeling explodes,
Leading to a wave of emotion.
I start to cry
Unsure of what has made me so sad.
But its not any sort of cry.
That feeling that has just opened
The one that is making me feel all these emotions
Its aching.
Its yearning for something.
I can feel it so deep into by body
It feels like physical pain.
Tears are streaming down my face.
I try to take those deep breaths again,
But it doesn't work, its uncontrollable.
After a while, it stops.
I can still feel that ache,
But not as bad anymore.
Then as I wash my face
It's as though nothing was ever there.
And what I'd felt was fake.
But I know its not, as I feel it everyday.
Emotion is a strange thing.

(NB to the reader: This is not constructed as are my other poems, its an account of how I was feeling, Just expressed it how it came to my mind)

Emotions are strange things... and hard to explain though you have done this so well here. Like most of my poems they are products of my emotions.... 10 plus
