All I Ever Do Is FeelA Poem by Emmy J.M. Powell
All I ever do is feel,
always tasting and experiencing, and listening and expressing. Obnoxiously perceptive, always looking around, and treating unexpected conversations, like a gunshot wound, with a faucet stream of blood, that will never coagulate. The blood feels freezing, just as I am becoming cold, from feeling too much, and while I used to bawl, at the littlest things, I am now the only person, with dry eyes at a funeral; dry eyes that watch, the wet and dripping ones, and feels emptiness, instead of sadness. I am ice queen by day,
and mourner by night, and I am becoming colder, with the humor and laughs, that I spit out like phlegm, because my body is warm, and rejecting this new coldness, and now, all I ever do is feel. © 2014 Emmy J.M. Powell |
