All it takes is a split second for our emotions to turn,

Once a spit ball of fire, now feeling the burn.

They can have a negative or a positive hold,

Emotions are two fold.

How to go from feeling so full of life to feeling so empty,

How to go from smiling to crying in distraught empathy,

How to go from having it all, to feeling like all has been taken,

How to go from being always on his mind to being forgotten.

So much we don’t understand,

We find ourselves asking for a helping hand.

We raise our arms to the man up above,

Seeking spiritual guidance and love.

It’s up to you to get your emotions in check,

Will you allow the blind disappointment to reap havoc?

Don’t cripple yourself emotionally and disable your ability to go on,

See the divine stepping stone laid out before for you, and move beyond.
