EMOTIONAL WAVES

 

By Sheila Mumbo

My heart is the ocean

Warm, blue and vast

It houses all my emotions

Its waves make me

 

My feelings are the tides

That keep my heart in motion

Crushing all my sanity in turns

Hiding them in all the patterns

 

My smiles are the pure waves

Riding in the ocean of my heart

Always coming back in marvel

Stronger than before they left

 

My frowns spread across the waters

Always churning with roars of anger

Drowning me in dark emotions

I cant hold onto anything

 

My waves are always in motion

Its strength always increasing

Making my heart yearn to be free

Or is this the feeling of being human

 

Is this how it is supposed to be

All  these waves of emotions

Do they make me who I am

Is it okay to be emotional?
