Some Feeling Poems

Once and a While

Jealousy is such a weird thing to feel,

It's one of the only feelings in this world that I know are real.

Love is complicated, as everyone knows,

But that's the path that most of us chose.

Happiness is short, a small tale,

Like a missed boat, that just set sail.

Something so many people want but is hard to get,

But getting consumed by sadness is something we let.

Whether it be death or heartbreak, it's all the same,

This certain wild feeling we cannot tame.

We gather scars from each lesson over and over,

While searching for that one little clover.

That little something that makes our lifes worth living,

Something that almost always isn't up for giving.

But how can we keep up hope when things look bad?

Things that hurt more than falling to the floor without a safety pad.

How can we keep up with the huge obstacles before us?

Obstacles that really create a huge fuss.

Or is it that destiny simply doesn't want things to be?

If so then why must it hate me?

Sure everyone can't reach their dreams all the time,

But would doing so once and a while be such a crime?
