Emotion
I know me
I'm more than you see
I accept me as I accept life
I avoid the strife
I am at peace when away from people
The earth is my steeple
I have hid from people so long.
They seem to like to do me wrong.
But I really dont care.
Sometimes I don't dare .
I have no clear understanding of mankind.
But I understand the mind.
I left life behind
Walked alone
Reflection of all I have been shown
The pain
The strain
The stain
Loss of hope
It is not real
Love, anger rage hate
Doesn't need to be your fate
One emotion , many different perspective of a single desire.
It's all from the same fire.
People at times, themselves they fight
What is wrong or even ,what is right
What keeps you up at night. Acknowledge, acceptance , embrace it, then let it go
This I know
If you stop your fight the energy you can save.
Hate makes for an early grave.
Control your emotion or it Controls you
This is true.
One emotion just diferent aspects of a single desire
Burning with flickering fire
