The day progresses,
As almost every other,
Simply sliding along,
Just to get by.
Not much happening,
Just simply waiting,
For the moment,
Where the feeling of butterflies,
Fill my stomach,
The beat of my heart,
Begins to increase,
A sudden surge of happiness & peace,
Blankets my entire body,
And calms my senses.
The entire world seems to disappear,
As you walk toward me,
A simple smile and “Hello”,
Brightens my entire day.
Suddenly,
The decision to get out of bed that mornings,
Seems very worth it.
If only time,
Would stand still,
So this moment would never end.
Then,
After a time,
We must depart,
Not wanting to let go,
You slip away for a time.
The second you are out of view,
I begin to miss you.
But alas,
Even though it may seem like forever,
It really isn't long,
Until we are together again.

Emotions

Emotions are a funny thing,
They have the ability,
To do many things to a person.
They can alter the way a person thinks,
How they act,
What they believe,
Who they trust,
And how they live.
Different emotions,
Affect people,
In different ways.
Anger can cause people,
To think rashly,
Jump to quick conclusions,
Make false assumptions,
And say things that they may not mean.
It may cause us to take out feelings,
Of the past,
On that person in our present.
Anger can quickly bring a relationship,
To its knees,
Choking,
And suffocating it,
Until it dies,
And withers away.
Becoming only a memory of the past.
Anger is potentially the strongest emotion,
That a person may feel,
If one lets it consume their mind.
However,
There is an alternative.
An opposite to this dark force,
Completing the balance.
This alternative to anger,
The the greatest emotion,
Any person can feel.
Even more powerful,
Than the overwhelming feeling of anger.
The one thing,
That makes life worth living.
Love.
The reason to be happy.
A reason to smile.
To get out of bed,
To be kind to a stranger.
Love can cause a person,
To act even more different,
Than anger.
It can completely alter your state of mind.
You start doing things,
That you may not do otherwise.
Your every thought,
Revolves around that one person.
You get to the point,
Where all you need,
In order to smile,
And be happy,
Is to think of a memory,
With that person in it.
Nothing makes you more happy,
Than seeing them smile,
Hearing them talk and laugh.
Nothing brings a bigger smile to your face,
Or make your eyes glow as bright,
As when you hold that person in your arms.
Feeling their warmth and love being returned.
As your embrace that person,
The rest of the world seems,
To simply,
Disappear.
During those moments,
Nothing else matters.
A feeling of comfort and safety,
Blankets your senses.
Causing you to feel a calm and peace,
That none other can compare to.
A reassuring feeling,
That someone cares for you,
So much,
That they do not look at your faults and weaknesses,
As a bad thing,
But as something,
That can be improved upon,
In order,
To better your life,
And the lives of those around you.
You may come to a point,
Where you,
And that special person,
Have created a bond,
Stronger than many others.
Where you can tell each other anything and everything,
And they can help you understand your thoughts,
Better than you can,
By yourself alone.
They are able to shed light,
Onto the dark sections of life.
Where you start staying up,
Late into the night,
Only to sneak onto the phone,
So that you may talk to that person,
Just a little bit more.
Where you want to spend every moment,
In their presence,
Not only because they are your significant other,
But because,
They are your best friend.
You feel more comfortable,
And more like yourself,
Around them,
Then almost anyone else.
And sometimes,
You feel sad,
Because you cannot fully express,
How you feel.
And you just want them to know,
How much they mean to you.
There are many differences,
Between anger and love.
It is better to feel,
One or the other,
Instead of nothing at all.
As for me,
I choose love.
For it is a feeling,
That I am addicted to.
Love is my religion,
And I would die for it anyday.
