Poem Title:
Poem
I close my eyes I see nothing A sense rolls in Grabbing for my attention Unfamiliar and foreign I ask my minds translator What is this that appears? Please tell me That is sadness my love For that cannot be I have all I need I am sadness my love You cannot be I do not need you I demand you to feel me I must be making things up I must be trying to find sadness after all I am happy This is me making things up Mom is that you? For how can sadness suite me? Which is the imposter? Is it me? I DEMAND YOU FEEL ME Sadness what are you really? I am sadness, stop trying to hide me, please. I open my eyes, I look out the window Stop trying to forget me please Please feel me I shed a tear and I cannot imagine why That’s right, these are happy tears I close my eyes I don’t know if I feel I look around to find the stranger The sadness itself has gone away I have won The translator now in tears I try to console it All it ever wanted was to be felt And it turns its back to me I need you here Now I’m spinning nauseatingly so I see them all Happiness steps forward What is this place? What do you mean, you’ve been here for a while? I’ve never been here, most of us haven’t. Then what is it I have been feeling all this time?
