Feelings Swirling In Me

"How would you describe,
Your feelings inside

If you were to calculate their meaning,
For each that you were feeling

Wondering about life,
And which emotion describes it right

How would it seem,
This impact on our being

Emptiness at the helm,
Lost or overwhelmed

For you don’t know,
Which way to go

Butterflies and excitement,
A giddy contentment

Of a spark that ignites,
A fire that incites

Satisfying events,
Or those to forget

That bring you success,
Or the need to confess

The desire to nurture,
Or yourself to reassure

A friendship to restore,
A love walking out the door

Happiness for what you’ve gained,
Or the heartbreak of a memories pain

Feelings which affect our heart and mind, 
I hope this cruel world will be kind

For each lesson earned,
More about myself I will learn"
