It's hard to understand feelings sometimes.
What is the feeling of happiness?
What is the feeling of sadness?
What about love,
pain,
and passion?
How do you describe them?
Is happiness the warmth that bubbles up from your gut and spills out of your mouth in light exclamatory remarks?
Is it coming home to a pet after a long day, being greeted with yips and kisses and adoration?
Is it finding your forever home in someone else?
Is sadness the punch to the gut when a loved one leaves for the last time?
Is it your first scraped knee?
Is it watching as everything comes to pieces around you,
holding onto something that will never hold you?
Can it be the feeling of drowning on land,
oxygen never truly reaching your lungs?
And love,
what is that elusive thing?
Is it the feeling of reaching true contentment? Unlocking emotions and places that you never could have imagined? Letting someone in for the first time, watching as you become a single entity?
It’s like all the answers are on the tip of my tongue,
but they never
fall.
