Emotions Poem by Phil Soar

Emotions on a tightrope looking like they’ll almost fall
Emotions of a kind that we would not wish to recall
Emotions flowing fiercely like a violent waterfall
Emotions stirring undercurrents, smashed against a wall

When faced with such a feeling, and without a place to stand
Churning up the thoughts you had, that they are underhand
And mixing up concoctions, which can only do no good
It’s then that you should hide away, and soothe your heated blood

Emotions seeking no redress, just turning back the time
Emotions helping nothing but the past and all its grime
Don’t dwell on all those yesterdays, and live just for the now
And pray that god will light your way, and really show you how
