Emotions

 
Emotions are not unique
We give ourselves away when we speak

Anger is such a basic force
Can strike fear in all as it takes its course

Jealousy, what a waste of time
For some it’s a claim of ‘mine, mine, and mine!’

Worry can leave you weak and ill
If you allow it heart and mind to fill

Hatred fuelled by the dreaded foe
Can take over your life and bring you low

Show love, for those around you
Children, parents, and your love so true
