Knowing and Feeling

How are you feeling, doing, living?
Fine whatever I guess, well I've been better
Usually happy, upbeat, optimistic, singing
Having a smile for days and towards others
Bring happiness by helping others when theyre down
But lately feeling well, I dont know
Mixed emotions has been all around
Swarming like bees and I'm dodging like "whoa"
Not that I've been having a rough life
Or making bad decisions upon myself
But its situations that bring the strife
Things I dont deserve but they must be dealt
I trying to think "what did I do"
Nothing comes to mind, my conscience clear
My mind sweetly questions the heart, "whats wrong with you?"
The heart responds with a IDK, the mind is confused saying "oh dear"
True when said "bad things happen to good people"
They get ignored, ostracized, and lied to
But prayer comes to calm, and the answer is ever so subtle
The mind reminds the heart of more important things saying "dont worry, I got you"
