Laughter, Love, Sadness, Anger, Happiness; The Five Emotions of the World

Happiness

Like a sunset, it comes and it goes.
A feeling that causes a ripple of effects like dominoes.
Sometimes the feeling is hidden,
Sometimes it’s never felt by the villian.
It is a feeling shown through tears and laughter.
It is a feeling that we must look after.
It is a feeling that is indescribable.
A feeling that is unstoppable.
For I say we should look after this,
Because at one time it is bliss
But then at a blink of an eye,
That happiness, that feeling turns to a cry.

Sadness

A shout into the voyage but no one is there.
An emotion that can only be cured by time and care.
As if time itself freezes,
Attacked by a thousand diseases.
Caused by death, disappointment, and fear,
The whole mind is set on that one gear.
The pain, words, and actions,
That cause millions of reactions.
Just remember to always hold on,
Before it is too late and your gone.

Anger

The emotion that controls all other emotions,
It has the power of a tsunami coming from an ocean.
Through anger, we find happiness, sadness, laughter, and love.
All these other emotions are a baseball and anger is the glove.
A feeling that has to be controlled,
If not, it acts as a blindfold
Some people use it as motivation and passion,
Other people fall and cash in.
Don’t be the hurricane that kills everything in its way,
Be the sunset that goes gracefully on the bay.

Laughter

The answer to the madness of life.
The answer to the strife.
The only cure that has no explanation.
God’s most glorious creation.
An element in life that brings people together.
Caused by jokes or the tickle of the feather.
A day without laughter, is a day that wasn’t cherished.
For without laughter, we would all perish.

Love

I saw her there standing in a crowd.
With a smile on her face, being all proud.
Maybe it was the brown eyes or the brown hair.
It was something that couldn’t compare.
From the first moment I saw her,
Everything except her was a blur.
Every day I wake up with that feeling,
The only thing that is healing.
I loved her then,
And every day I love her again.
She passed away but the feeling never,
She will always live on forever.
For I have felt love,
For I have felt the wings of a golden dove.


The author's comments:

The emotions I described above are the five emotions of the world. With these emotions we experience life. We experience the ups and downs, the positive and negatives. Through life I have been bullied and felt sadness and anger. Through my family, friends, and relationships I have felt love and laughter. Through nature i find happiness. However, through all these things I find life. I hope people get inspired by my work through their every day lives. I hope people can use these emotions to strive forward and not give up. My main message to people is through life we find difficulties, we feel emotions, how we respond to these emotions is what determines who we are.
