Emotions

Meet the heart that feels deeply, true
Pride in its depth, it shows but few
When passion flares, a crowd draws near
Silent, it holds a world, of sincere

Witness the joy that lights the face
Its laughter soft, a gentle grace
When mirth erupts, all join the glee
Quiet bliss, an inner jubilee

Touch the sorrow that wells inside
Its tears unseen, a hidden tide
When grief pours out, sympathy flows
In silence, pain profoundly grows

Find the anger that burns so bright
Its flame controlled, a guarded light
When fury speaks, all stand in awe
Unspoken rage, the strongest law

Embrace the love that blooms so rare
Its warmth is subtle, beyond compare
When spoken loud, it's all to see
Whispered low, it sets souls free

I enjoy this deep introspection of emotions. Why some have more emotional turmoil is a good question.
