A FEW WISE WORDS

I thought emotions were a tragedy,
The worst happens when you bury them into expectations of someone else,
they crash and burn,
like making that swerve into the wrong lane,
 it's coming towards you and you know you should do something,
but those moments before the bang are calm, 
 in slow motion,
you let yourself go.
then the jolt hits and you're lying there..
wondering... barely alive, but breathing...
you are just breathing...
Youth and the need to be dramatic are like the horizon and the dawn,
it passes
and eventually you shall see that
emotions are not to be used on anyone,
it's there for you to feel what having the sky under your skin feels like,
it's there for you to experience how the music of life can make your soul dance,
it's the fuel that burns within you, burns to be let out into passionate floods of inspiration.
