Internal Confusion

Today I want to write,
  But I have nothing to say,
  No words to find.... just feelings, 
  Are all I've got today!

  I'm frustrated and excited,
  I'm sad and I'm scared,
  I'm somewhat happy and elated,
  But does it even matter, when no one really cared?

  All these emotions to express 
  They're all entangled in my mind,
  So I guess it's not the words, 
  It's myself..... I truly need to find. 

  If I knew myself better,
  The words would come to me,
  So for today I'll just remind myself 
  "What is meant to be, will be!"
