Emotion's Commotion</u>
I feel a surge of emotion coming
it's calling me from behind
"Answer me," it says and,
"you must do, have to show me
- don't keep me locked inside!"
I open my mouth but no words come out;
I open my eyes and let fear flow about.
Light'ning rays of thought,
come enter;
Quickly strands of thinking
enter-
I feel them in my brain,
they're saying,
"Open your mind now, please let us in.
We're on your side so, come on and let us in!"
- All at once I'm crying.
I open my mouth but not much comes out;
I open my eyes and the tears flow about.
I close my eyes...It's not helping!
Flashing bolts of thundering hate
come knocking at my door.
I answer it and all smiles disappear-
"GO away!" I say, "Go away!
I don't need you here no more!"
I feel a surge of emotion coming
as I push it all aside.
"Let us in!" They all beg and say,
"You must do, have to show us
- don't keep us blocked away!"

This is an OLD old song I wrote back in high school...March 24, 1998 to be exact - in Ms. Campbell's World History Class to be even more exact! I'm sure we've all been through this: fighting back tears, suppressing your anger, swallowing your giggles in math class...well, that's what this is about, wanting to express yourself on the inside, but trying not to.
*note: the preview has nothing to do with the song. In fact, that's a recent pic from Halloween '06 - no where near 1998, or March for that matter
I was the "Gossimer Ghost" & it's hard to tell, but my hair's a grey-blue...I ended up looking more like a corpse bride than just a regular ghost. Ah well.

Interestingly enough, I recognize some of the teenager-type descriptions. 
"Flashing bolts of thundering hate," for example. 
Teh weather si mighty enuff! Not to poke fun, just something that amused me to identify with. 
Also, I like how the poem makes an "E." You know, how some people (i.e., me, very often) make capital e's like a backwards 3? *grins* EMOTION! haha!
