My Conflicting Emotions

I want to tell you how I feel deep down,
Deep inside my mind,
I want to show you my emotional light,
But I’m afraid of what I’ll find,
Because, when I sat, with a pen and paper,
And waited for my muse,
I waited for hours, in complete silence,
For any emotive news,
No happy, no sad, no desire or drive,
Nope, nothing through the night,
I think my pencil was sadder than me,
Because it didn’t get to write,
But then I realised why my page was empty,
Why it wasn’t writing anymore,
It’s because my conflicting emotions,
Are busy fighting a tug of war.
You see, my happy rumbles with my sad,
As disgust battles with delight,
Leaving me, emotionally, all alone,
Since my emotions are in a fight,
So, if only “lonely from my feelings”,
Was a feeling I could reveal,
Then I could write my feels to read, my friend,
I could tell you that I feel.
