Emotional Cycle of Life

Karla Barnes

Much like life my emotions cycle

Sometimes the cycles are weeks, days, hours, moments

Days of sunshine and memories

Soon to be overcast by the storm brewing within


Birds singing and children laughing

The feeling of warmth and delight

Often spoilt by the bitter breeze and darkness of life

For the bad outweigh the good

Or do they?


Life can be unpredictable

Swaying slowly in the wind

Or crashing waves against the rocks

Either way I venture through the cycles

Through no choice of mine

It what life had instore for me


It’s important to remember

The sun will shine again, even on the wettest of days

For without rain, rainbows would not exist

Flowers wouldn’t bloom and there would be no new beginnings

The good come with the bad

Without one there is no cycle
