A throwback: a poem I wrote on 1/30/13.
The breadth and depth of your emotions know no bounds
because they are figments of you that are
wholly permanent, forever staking a claim in the empty space
of your existence,
and eternally growing, manifesting themselves in a way
that will always exist, always remind you of everything
you have and will experience.
The breadth and depth of your emotions swirl
around in your mind, a blizzard that etches itself
inside your mind and buries itself in the crevices of the
pores on your face
and making themselves comfortable inside
the empty spaces in your ears
and slips off of the callouses on your fingertips.
Too much emotion will drown you in a sea of complexity
and
too little emotion will isolate you from the world.
With so much emotional conflict constantly skating across your brain,
no wonder your heart, without any questions or doubts, rebels against you
so loudly, so fervently, so violently.
