Metaphor of Emotions

How should I describe the whirlwind Of emotions we face? Like an anchor... Cast into an abysmal sea Where we must swim to the surface In order to see clearly A maze... tanding in the center Pondering over the many intricate paths But there is only one exit The tornado... That suddenly roars through Dissarraying everything Then leaves us to pick up the pieces Perhaps a car crash... In a matter of a second They can strike us hard When we least expect it That persistent fly... Which continues to land Annoying you repeatedly And doesn't leave A foreign language... A subject studied rigourously To increase our understabding In an effort to master it So... Which metaphor(s) best applies to your life?
