Emotion.............. couplets

Over the years I've come to see

just how strongly emotions affect me.

The make me laugh, scream and cry,

emotions are the reason why from people I shy.

Whether it's love, hate, sadness, or joy

emotions use and abuse me like a broken toy.

Love fills my soul and gives me wings,

but sometimes love can really sting.

Hate deludes me and assaults my mind,

it reminds me that the world isn't always kind.

Sadness drowns me and blackens my soul,

and at times sadness seems to be the only thing I can control.

Joy is a happy thing and brings a smile to my face,

but sometimes joy leaves me in disgrace.

Emotions fill me each and every single day,

they color my skies but leave me standing in a shade gray.
