How am I?

One of my tumblr followers asked me to write a poem about how I'm feeling right now, this is the result. 7/19/2013

Feeling is such a silly word. 

I listened to a sad song a few minutes ago,

With the musician's words, my emotions flipped, 

My focus shifted to tragic things. 

No more than two minutes later, 

She sent me a picture of a silly face,

Suddenly, my feelings changed. 

Half smile, scrunched nose, eyes closed, 

She made me laugh. 

The simplest things can impact how I feel,

But very few can affect who I am,

Feelings aren't all that important. 

I've felt many ways throughout my journey, 

Blissful happiness, 

Broken-hearted grief, 

Innocent joy, 

Painful rejection,

Passionate affection,

Suicidal misery,

Overwhelming peace,

I have felt many things. 

I used to let these define me, 

But as my state of mind altered, 

I blew with the wind. 

Feelings can no longer describe who I am. 

How am I feeling, at this exact moment, you ask? 

I am happy, 

I am sad, 

I am scared, 

I am nervous, 

I am curious, 

I am restless, 

I am alone, 

But I am content.
