Emotions

Thoughts swirling, confused
Admitting, confessing
Terrified of how I feel
Jealous, angry, hopeful, anxious
So afraid it makes me dizzy
Sometimes, sometimes I feel
Like I’ll never totally accept
Knowing, they’ll never totally accept
Feelings flourished so quickly
This one confession
Turning my thoughts inside out
Upside down
Taking over my head
This one confession
Will change my life
In a way I never knew
So aware of everyone
So aware of myself
But somehow these feelings
Crept up on me
Somehow I never knew
The day I finally said it, admitted
So terrified, I could barely form words
My terror, overwhelming,
These feelings, confusing
Rushing headfirst
Into emotions, thoughts
I never imagined I’d have
This confession has changed my outlook
My opinions, my attitude
This confession has changed me
This confession has made me alive.
