Emotion
More than a flood.
A river rising to meet my soul,
current or no,
carrying this spirit
where it will.

shared emotion
thought, emotion
in a relay race
through body and mind
each lap igniting sparks
firing across synapses
instantaneous
love
spoken, unspoken
thought, emotion
facing a tsunami of
words
inundating
slowly seeping away
leaving behind
sodden ash
heartbreak
thought, emotion
in a dull glow
re-firing to
recover
bridge a gap
reconnect
commune with
the outside world
“shared emotion” originally appeared at bonnie mcclellan’s weblog
during International Poetry Month 2017, where the theme was
“Neural Networks: The Creative Power of Language.”
expressing regret
in acoustic reflection
from a weary soul
flood of emotions
precious words misspent
misunderstandings
burying the past
with blanket of emotions
and a heavy heart

Lost in a maze that binds, confines me
Locked in the prison of my mind
I scratch my way to the light
As I claw my way past
The blackness around
My emotions
This ever
Tangled
Web
