emotion - Blackout Poetry Notes

Reinvent Myself

A lost mind, locked inside
cracking with emotion.
I've tried living freely,
that's simply not me.
I can't reinvent myself.

I love you,
please help me understand
the emotion behind
the words.
I don't know if I've
ever really known.

Filled with joyous abandon,
he whispered her name
and she felt
every emotion all at once.

She glances at his eyes
lit with an emotion so frantic,
trying desperately
to convey that
without her there is no world at all.

Uttering a few unintelligible words
I don't yet possess
the language to articulate
the emotion, the loss, the anger.

Works written in passion
often try to hide
the full emotion and vulnerability.

A blind fall
had her frail moorings
open suddenly,
and a burst
of faint music evoked
incommunicable emotion,
like a wave trailing in her wake.

She flung that excess of emotion
back at the coward,
for he'd kept his distance
and played her.

We must decide
every minute is valuable.
Acknowledge the good,
yet rest to recover from the emotion
of the past.

Happiness is a
taste of emotion,
of love so perfect.
