Emotions on the Run

Ever get such a feeling, that is indescribable and it's just so hard to label what your feeling, because it's a mix of emotions and confusion and frustration and everything else.

I wish I knew why my emotions were running so wild

every time I try to direct them a certain way

They run across the horizon

I scream to be heard

But I am silent

My confusion is what mutes me

And leaves you bewildered

I wish I had all the answers

But my mind has been murdered

Lost for words

Only I can help myself

After all I am the one who drove myself into this madness.

Author's Note

I am so lost confused right now and my emotions are all over the place... hence the reason why my poetry is a little scattered.

Brown Rose, i love your style of writing. Syntax and the usage of trite words can be worked on, but this piece is nonetheless worth reading.

I believe that this is a very strong ending:

But my mind has been murdered

Lost for words

Only I can help myself

After all I am the one who drove myself into this madness.

beautiful post. thank you for sharing!

Hey, this is brilliant. I know what you mean in your Note, I've been there. But sometimes the most fractured and turmoiled mindset can produced the most truthful and focused work. The important thing is to let moments like that to be positive and constructive, not the opposite and that's what you've achieved here. Sweet.

i can defanantly feel the confusion and struggle within your own mind. let your feelings and emotions guide you. emotions are like wild animals that shouldnt be tamed. dont try to controll your emotions, just find out were they're taking you.

Concerning Authors Note.. You may see your emotions being all over the place, and your words scattered but this poem is my favorite of yours. I love how the first five lines go down evenly from long sentences to short sentences this gives your a flow that reads extremely well. The fifth line "but I am silent" since it is one of the shortest lines in the poem I can feel the silence in it. Excellent way that makes me feel the silence. The shape of the remaining sentences are not as orderly as the first five and this me the feeling of confusion that you are writing about. This is an excellent poem that hits the mark with the message~

I like your kitty!
Your poem - though I don't do poems, is more like prose in lines - which is okay...
...but if you play with the words...

Second time I read it more like this, picking out the stronger words -

emotions wild -
time: direct - a certain way
across horizons
screaming to be heard
remain silent.
confusion mutes me,
bewildered, I turn
answers murdered,
lost for words
madness

...picking up on more of its essence?
I don't know? ...but YOU certainly convey a sense of powerful angst with the piece!
good 'un
