A DECATHLON OF EMOTIONS

Is it Rage that you wear, or his brother, Calm?

Is it Love that you want, or you'd bed his foe, Hate?

Tell me, do you shackle yourself to Pain,

Or you chose her sister, Joy?

Come on, tell it to me, whisper it to me in the market. 

Why is it you crave loneliness over comfort? 

Say it loud, say it clear! 

Say these words & the world listens;

I want you to tell the ewi of the one your pale heart

wishes to see –

Tell me young poet, don’t hide such from me; 

In my tummy lies a castle, inhabited by lords; 

Kings & Queens of different nations;

Yet, they have just a crown to cover their heads. 

I mask everything like the baldness of their head;

Emotions!
