Choices

Choices

Apocalyptic alarms suddenly screamed ripping me from my tender dreams,
The deathly darkness drowned me as I struggled to battle in its inky waters,
Like a lost spirit looking for the light doomed to be a ghastly ghoul,
Glancing in a green rage at my Boyfriend cuddled up in heavenly blankets,
Morose morning mayhem is the Maze that controls my day,

Feelings and Emotions are like a vending machine, which one will you pick?

The melodies of the alarm carried me like an angel into my new life,
I’m born again,
Like a child at Christmas I leapt out of bed, what gifts would I unwrap,
Stopping for a fleeting second to see how cute my boyfriend was tucked up,
Innocent untainted I see the world as mine, my dear friend

Feelings and Emotions are a scent carrying in the breeze and falling onto those around you.

Being tortured by freezing water chilling me to the bone,
Living life is like being trapped in an Asylum,
I grit my teeth and scour my skin like self-mortification,
A Monk that had committed a Sin,

Feelings and Emotions are like waves are you going to let people surf along with you or will you crush and destroy them in your wake.

I dive into the shower the water shocking me into an addictive sense of lucidity,
Like a Bounty advert I lathered up in cocktail clouds of the juices of fruits, nourishing my skin the scent of summer painting the walls of the bathroom.
Singing like a bird, I make the Shower my theatre,

Feelings and Emotions are a journey which way do you want to go?

The last mile like a prisoner on death row, I walk to work with a face like thunder,
Winter is here the skeletal trees all frozen in claws toward the sky,
The sky is still dark and Jack Frost’s breath is like acid on my cheek,
I prepare for Chronos’s curse eight long hours trapped away from my family and life,

Feelings and Emotions are the outfits we wear,

I walk to work the path is lined with possibilities, The Autumn morning is fresh and I can see the glitter of Christmas sparkling the streets,
The street Lights still on like Fairy lights with halos of magical mist,
Eight hours to make a difference, to get stuck into a challenge, to speak to my friends and family over the phone and to love life.

Feelings and Emotions are Choices we are lucky we have them
