Emotions in a box

by tigerdan   Sep 25, 2008


Put your emotions in a box
and lock it up tight
don't be so uptight

smile
fake it just right
be sure to be polite

put your emotions in a box
and lock it up tight
don't be freaking happy

smile
fake it just right
be sure to be polite

put you emotions in a box
and lock it up tight
don't let your frustrations sneak out

smile
fake it just right
be sure to be polite

put your emotions in a box
and lock it up tight
Don't let you anger blow it

smile
fake it just right
no one wants to see that awful sight

put your emotions in a box
and lock it up tight
don't show your grief

smile
fake it just right
no one wants to see that awful sight

smile
fake it just right
always have your emotion in a box

    so this is a what-they-want-you-to-do type of thing not what-I-personally-believe type.
    makes more sence.

    I think that we should control our emotions before they control us, but I think society expects us to go through life like robots-emotionless.

    I like that poem, and I tend to agree mature people should learn to reign in their emotion but never to stifle it.

    Sad... but i guess sadness makes for a good poem. this was a good write but i dont agree with the message. i like to be expressive. =]
