Emotions

Anger, jealousy, happiness, sadness, love and hate,
it's the feelings that penetrate,
the entire being of each persons fate.

Emotions are endless, powerless, powerful and most profound,
some cannot be hidden, some cannot be found.

No one is exempt from these unpredictable surges that erupt,
some good, some corrupt.

They can be dormant before working their way to the light,
suddenly exploding, day or night.

Controlling such overwhelming power can be hard to do,
Emotions, they belong to me and you...
