Emotions are a funny thing

They work in mysterious ways

 

Sometimes it's hard to keep up with the tides 

Other times we learn to surf the waves

 

Anger feels like being set on fire 

But no one else can see the flames 

 

Sadness flows like a river 

Or it can pour down like rain

 

Happiness can feel like a ray of warm light 

Glowing through our veins

 

We can learn to accept our emotions 

And heal from our pains 

 

If only we listen to their teachings and allow ourselves to feel them 

 

We can learn to see our emotions as healers 

The essence of being human
