Spilling Emotions, Poetry
Spilling Emotions
Spilling emotions and changing moods are part of being human. Many things, including internal, and external factors, can cause such ‘highs and lows’, contributing to changing moods. However, this does not mean that the foundation of our values, boundaries, or central core-being changes.

Personality
Spilling Emotions
Talkative
I am extremely
shy, when
I am not
the center
of attention;
And, I do not
have much to say,
when I do not have
a thousand
things to mention!
Loud
I am generally
down-to-earth,
when I am not
floating away
on a cloud;
And, I tiptoe
all around,
when I am not
being clumsy,
and so loud!
Subdued
I am rather
subdued,
when I am not
telling everyone
(and their brother),
my epic life's story;
And, I like
watching musicals,
when I am not
watching something
gory!
Humbled
I bow down
before The Lord,
but in His Victory,
I stand forever tall;
I am really so
many things,
you see,
but I am also
nothing much at all!

Sometimes, when the spilling of Emotions seems uncharacteristic of a person’s “normal” mood changes, or is overly severe, it can possibly signify a medical or psychiatric condition that should be looked into as soon as possible. There is no shame is seeking help, or talking to a professional who can offer us advice, or guide us to finding solutions!

Friend of Mine
.
Is there a friend
who will stand,
and not bend;
or, do they all
get swept away
like silk petals
on fading
pearls?
.
Is there a friend
who will begin,
and not end;
or, do they all
swim away
while seagulls
wail
above
shimmering
lands?
.
Is there a friend
who will receive,
and not send;
or, do they all
drift away
like red-winged
dragons
searching
for higher
dreams?

Thumbs up for rhyme, rhythm and with so few words you created such a juxtaposition of meanings.
Awesome read and still no complexities.
