Emotions Rise

emotions rise 
feelings spread 
thoughts grow
conscious mind 
realizes them
subconscious mind 
holds onto them
locking them all
up within the prison 
of the mind's eye 
never allowing them
to run free to grow 
and change 
inhibits them from 
escaping their prison walls 
that they themselves have 
built up around themselves
