EMOTIONS AND LIFE

 

RIDE THE WAVES

The person living in the body is an emotional being as knowledge plays havoc with the way we are feeling. The brain and the logic tells us how we should be, stating the facts like written theory. When we're feeling down on an emotional low, we are told to take tonic and boosters as well. We do all these things as we are told to do, but the darkness still abides feeling so blue. We spike our bodies with over activity while a heart of lead still drags us to the ground. We go for the tests to see what is wrong, but it's not from the body that brings forth the song. We spend night after night rolling around in our bed with all the knowledge running up and down in our head. We're so disconnected and pulled apart as our mind keeps on contradicting the heart. We're placed in a box and shoved into molds, blindly following whatever we're told. We struggle for years with insecurity and doubts because we are treating the wrong symptoms. We try to use mental brainwashing with positive thinking, but when we are truly honest with ourselves it doesn't reach the broken heart. We become masters of disguise, not even knowing ourselves, hiding our emptiness inside with grand gestures and big talk. We say we are fine but lie through our teeth as we laugh too loud trying to hide the heaviness that pulls us down. We think we're all adult in hiding our emotions, but like a neglected child it keeps making commotions, like a stormy sea causing havoc in our souls. We chain our feelings in prisons and cages, not wishing for others to see our rages. And so we survive in unhappy pretense, seeking in all the wrong places for the joy and contentment that should fulfill our lives....©
