Emotions……….SB

Your emotions affect everything
How you're feeling directs your way
When you're up you're up, and down you're down
It's a roller coaster every day

Your emotions can cause you to build up walls
Or even let your guard down when it should not be
It's amazing how much control and power is given
To something you can't even see

Now, some people are what they call “Emotionless”
They are cold, hard, and claim to have No fear
Their hugs are like ice and their smiles are fake
And for their own mother, they wouldn't even shed a tear

Others they call “Emotional Wrecks”
If the wind blows to hard they start to cry
They wear their heart on their sleeves and have sympathy for all
And bend over backwards until the day that they die

The last group is called “Emotionally Conscious”
They have control over their feelings at hand
They cry when they are sad, laugh when they are happy
And so on… according to plans

So whether you are “Emotionally Challenged”
Or Emotionally Stable in all that you do
Make sure you are the one guiding your emotions
And that your emotions, aren't guiding You.
