frisson

i feel too much
too much all at once
all at once i start to wonder
wonder why i feel the way i do
i feel the way i do because of the people around me
the people around me influence me
influence me to where i don’t know where i begin 
where i begin and where i end 
where i end and where they start 
they start becoming a part of me i think 
i think that is the nature of human nature 
human nature says we need people 
people to love, to care, to exist
exist is what i do 
i do not know what i am 
what i am is what people tell me 
and people tell me i feel too much

Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
