Cages of Emotions

Fear is a beast
An hungry one at that
Feasts on the liver first
Keeping dreams grounded
Never to take flight
Sadness comes in to visit in tow
With depression
Then anger sets in
To fight the denials
Scaring away all hope and happiness
Pains is felt all over
As dreams seem to seep away
In silence
But what are we without them
What are vessel without its content
What are human without emotions
Nothing
But mere emptiness
A dried husky shaft
Yet with emotions, all focus is lost
All strategy ridden with flaws
All aims at the target is off
All thinking is less that straight
As we bend under emotional weight
We are but cages of wild emotions
That would never stay put
As Fear joust with reason
Anger with calmness
Sadness trying to overcome happy states
Depression over clouding motivation
We humans docile vessels
Of emotional party animal
Feel the turbulence within
As all emotions fights
To be the first one out
And when they do come out
Anger manifest in fury of punches
Fear manifest in flight
As happiness in tear of joy
Making the world a zoo
Of emotional experiences
Seen in dramatic expression
In every single Cage
