A Collection of Poems - Emotions & Thoughts

3

There are times I wish I couldn't feel.

Because if I feel it means it real.

But feeling is what makes us human, isn't it?

It's what makes us "functioning" human beings.

Because you could just be going through the motions, like a robot.

Programed to do what it needs to do.

But, wait?

Isn't that what humans are?

It's in our DNA to survive, find food, shelter, water.

So really you don't have to feel to be functioning.

So why is feeling a thing?

Because all I really want is to not have to feel every time...

they yell,

I disappoint them,

they take something I care about,

I lose another someone,

I fail,

I think low,

she cries because I'm not what she wanted,

Do you really have to feel?

Is it really necessary?

Because I don't want to.

And I never did.
