~Instructions For A Feeling!~
Early Valentine's Special? You decide! What's your how to experience in creating or avoiding a feeling? Here's the poem I wrote trying to answer the prompt & challenge this piece is titled after!
"WARNING DON'T READ THE FOLLOWING,
TO AVOID FEELINGS AND LOVE AT ALL COST!"
Denial of those emotions,
The things that make you feel...
Does he tickle you well,
From the inside
Where no ones sees?
Your heart swells
Your skin sweats,
Your fingers tingle
Oh and when...
You Hear His Voice
Or see his
Cheek to Cheek Smile,
And how the glitter
In his eyes
Lights up a room,
When he walks in!
But still you deny
You don't admit,
Will not depend
On your emotions
(Never Again)...
It's not a reality
It's not truth!
So you slink away
To the washroom,
And cry silently
Behind
A bathroom door!
How you wonder
Do I turn back
Time...
To the Day BEFORE
We met,
To the day Before
The first time
I saw him?
Did we lock eyes
Dare I even guess?
Oh
How much simpler
It was,
Without any promise
Or hope
Of breaking that singleness
Streak!
It's so much easier
To live without wonder
Of Love,
And having your hopes
Dashed!
(`Oh the melodramatics!`)
The Day BEFORE
We met
YES,
That was Best!
When she got home
Sighing with relief
The party was over,
Turning out the lights
She climbed into bed,
Under her covers
ALONE...
Was her Comfort,
Grabbing her bear
Desperate to Sleep,
She put on her eye mask
Hoping her dreams,
Would Not Reflect
His Gaze!
Her Defiance was sure,
The Day
Must be made...
A Blurr!
