I feel the words
I feel the metaphors
That you put down
On your page

I feel the heavy heart
I feel the pain pulling
Pulling me down
I feel old memories
Things I didn't say
Things I'll never have
People I'll never love
They turn into rocks and daggers
I feel the heavy heart

I feel the lump in my throat
I feel phrases that try to escape
I feel stories that want to be told
I feel lies
I feel truths
Hate
Love
Pain
I feel the lump in my throat

I feel the butterflies in my stomach
I feel the promise of a new day
I feel the hope
I feel the excitement
I feel the things I hide
I feel what I show to everyone
To the world
I feel...better
I feel the butterflies in my stomach

I feel despair
I feel change
I feel you
I feel me
I feel
Everything
