unprocessed

I have never had so many adjectives to describe myself, to describe my feelings.
Who is this person with emotions that breathe in thick like steam?

Disappointment, frustration, discouragement, anger, confusion
Excitement, peace, anticipation, expectation, hurt, hope....

Never in my life have I tasted so many flavors of life
The richness of it is making me sick
Too much, too quickly, without time in between to catch my breath

Hand on my heart to catch it from falling
Fingers on my wrist to count my racing heartbeat
