Metaphor of emotions

by Mark Lee   Dec 11, 2006


How should I describe the whirlwind
Of emotions we face?

Like an anchor...
Cast into an abysmal sea
Where we must swim to the surface
In order to see clearly

A maze...
standing in the center
Pondering over the many intricate paths
But there is only one exit

The tornado...
That suddenly roars through
Dissaraying everything
Then leaves us to pick up the pieces

Perhaps a car crash...
In a matter of a second
They can strike us hard
When we least expect it

That persistent fly...
Which continues to land
Annoying you repeatedly
And doesn't leave

A foreign language...
A subject studied rigorously
To increase our understanding
In an effort to master it

I wish...
Emotions were like a light switch
A device we flip on or off
As we so please

However...
Ask this question
How would we experience
Life without feelings?

Would there be an experience?
