What to Feel

by Typhani Tate   Sep 14, 2016


Feeling sorrow and hatred,
but also happiness and love.
Nothing to be sorrowful for,
but also nothing to be happy about.
Nothing to be hated,
but also nothing to be loved.

Feeling alone in this world,
but yet there are people in it.
For each person has their own destiny,
their own feelings, and their own ideas.
Each person has someone to hate,
but they also have someone to love.

Feeling dead and sick,
but also alive and well.
Dead because there's no one to love,
but also alive because of a purpose not yet found.
Sick because of stupidity,
but well because of success.

Feeling stupid and ignorant,
but also smart and intelligent.
Stupid because of decisions made wrong,
but also smart because of decisions made right.
Ignorant because of mistakes never learned,
but also intelligent because of mistakes learned from.

    Welcome to P&Qs.

    This is a very thought provoking piece. We all have things that we are proud of and things that we aren't so proud of, that's life.
