Feelings are essential

Location

Imagine what the world would be like if feelings didn’t exist,

If we could just go up and talk to people that we miss.

 

No one would ever be embarrassed to say

I need you or I don’t like things this way.

 

Sleepless nights of thinking would be no more,

It would be so easy to go knock on someone’s door.

 

There would be no long pauses between awkward texts,

Or moments of wondering what you will say next.

 

You would have unlimited chances to mess everything up

And when you wanted to make things right it would be easy to ‘fess up.

 

There would be no more worries of getting denied

 Everyone would be holistically satisfied.

 

Even though this all sounds oh so great for everyone,

We need feelings in our lives to make things fun.

 

Without feelings we would be like gray rain clouds all the time,

A compliment given to you wouldn’t be worth a dime.

 

Even those dumb texts that are quite sappy,

Wouldn’t make you the least bit happy

 

Sometimes it is good to have struggles and cry,

We learn from them and let those memories die.

 

Without feelings we would have no good memories

or a silly smile that everyone sees.

 

So as teenagers of this generation,

Lets keep embracing our feelings all over the nation.

 

All it takes to cure the bad things stated above

Is just a little confidence, that we have enough of.

 

Everyone around the world should make each other feel wanted,

Not stupid, or ignorant, or dumb or not needed

 

Let’s make a rule of no more regrets or sorrow,

We will look at the good in things starting tomorrow.
