Tayler Malark Poet Free verse

Joy

This is the first of my "Joy" collection. Enjoy




   My face lights up with a thousand watts.
Sparks fly out from within my body.
My emotions flood my head.
Love and joy overwhelm me.
I blackout form this sudden high.
It feels like drugs and toxins swarm inside me.

This unexplainable feeling engulfs me.
I am confused.
I don't know what my feelings are.
It must be a blessing from god.
He finally heard my prayers and pleas.
I thank him with my soul.
This feeling.
This feeling.
Joy!

What is Joy but a flood of emotions.
It is unknown how the body improves with joy.
The joy of happiness.
What is Joy?
Joy can be many things.
The joy of...
The joy of...
The joy of love.
