Emotions
Joy
is the chocolate that melts in your mouth,
As
you snuggle under a soft, woolly blanket,
The
smooth, white pages of a book you have
Waited
to read, crinkling as you turn them.
Sorrow
is the ice cream that falls on the pavement
Not
even two minutes after you’ve bought it,
Leaving
you with a promise, an expectation
Of
creamy sweetness, shattered in an instant.
Fear
is the closet door, left open just a crack,
The
large, hairy spider that sneaks up a wall,
The
light that flickers even when the switch says “OFF,”
The
dark, lonely spaces of great unknowns.
Love
is a cozy cottage surrounded by snow,
Underneath
the velvety sky dotted with stars,
A
wisp of smoke trailing out of the chimney,
And a
single lit window, to guide you home.
