Emotions compared to reality

Thoughts swirling in my head,
 like whispers in the wind.

Fear pounding my heart,
 like a drum echoing in the grand canyon.

Saddness drowning my soul,
like a penny at the bottom a wishing well.

Anger scorching my blood,
like an ice cream cone left out in the sun.

Betrayel fluttering inside my stomach,
like a butterfly escaping its cacoon.

Faith fading from my soul,
like the light as the sun begins to set.

Holding on to strength,
like needle and thread.
