Dance of Emotions

Sorrow only hangs her head

While walking to the floor

Pride wants all the attention

While Greed keeps seeking more

Shame hides behind the curtains

While Anger demands his way

Fear is too afraid to dance

Impatience just wouldn't stay

Joy was dancing all over the place

While Lust's heart began to burn

Love just watched with stars in her eyes

While Patience was waiting his turn

Confusion didn't know what to do

While Surprise was doing the twist

Shock was so appalled of it all

While Temptation just couldn't resist

The Broken Hearts just sit and cried

While Doubt didn't believe it was real

Now you've seen the dance of emotions

So tell me, how do you feel?

OMG I love this! So creative, I just loved all that characterization with different emotions, brought together just beautifully. I really enjoyed reading this. The rhyme scheme made it very catchy, and the emotions were elicited in such a lovely way, all in a dance, different characters all co-existing inside an individual. Loved the harmony, loved the poem.

AMAZING! I love love this poem a lot, this has got to be one of the best pieces of writing on the site!

Truly, this was a dance, as it is, within our minds, at some moments. This is a very clever study of feelings you have done here, my friend. Very unique.

a wise ride on the roller coaster of emotions, you speak from a deeper voice. The final question seems like a dare to get on this this tragic wheel. Well done!! Linda Willows
