Little Things Called Emotions
How are you
I am fine, but
Am I really
I am depressed
I live in a world of nothingness
Emotional grief has engulfed me in an iron grip
It won't let go
The sorrow has become too much and now controls me, but
I am fine
I am angered
my stomach boils
my hands making fists while I shake
the need for deep breathes is great
they had no right to compare, but
I am fine
I am melancholy
Others pains flash before my eyes
An endless pit of worry
A heavy heart dragging down my spirit
the loss of a grandma is unbearable, but
I am fine
I am befuddled
Words, places, and numbers swirl aimlessly around in an abyss of my mind
The days and weeks going by so fast my head spins
A plethora of unanswerable questions accumulating
It's the constant zoning out, but
I am fine
I am scared
The shadows lazily creep toward me
The darkness makes me jump
My heart pounding while my insides whither in fear
Too frightened to ever watch Bones again, but
I am fine
I am flustered
My stomach is eating itself up
My nails are now nothing
The pressure is suffocating me
As the P.A.R.C.C. draws near, but
I am fine
I am jubilant
The excitement makes me jittery
The unerasable ear to ear grin
The extra bounce in my step
Anxious for the competition to start, but
I am fine
I am guilty
I am on edge to the point my brain can not think
My heart heavy so I must tell someone
To relieve what I did
I had to get revenge but now it is making my nerves haywire, but
I am fine
I am in love
My heart is melting
With only him on my mind
A endless giddy feeling in my stomach
As the picture perfect boy appears on the t.v., but
I am fine
I am human
My emotions vary
They swirl around my pre-occupied mind and heart like a summer breeze
I am more then okay, good, or fine
Life has various emotions some easier to tell than others, but
I am always just fine
I am fine
All the distinctive emotions put into three simple words
The automatic answer to the most natural question
No thought or sincerity is in the answer, but
I am still fine
Have you been asked this simple yet complex question?
When you answer think about it
Don't be afraid to open up
No one is ever 'just fine'
Remember
How are you
I am fine, but
Am I really
Look for the deeper meaning in life
