Do You Really Know?

Do you really know what love is?
To feel so happy and free,
Knowing that it is the right thing,
To keep in your heart.

 

Do you really know what sadness is?
To gush out tears upon your pillow,
Singing the blues all the time,
Wishing your pain would go away.

 

Do you really know what anger is?
To rage out and punch yourself
To be mad at the world and self,
Until you have no more strength.

 

Do you really know what fear is?
To curl up in a ball and pray,
That you will live for one more day.

 


Do you really know what these are?
These are the emotions we feel every day,
Each one coming up at a certain time, in a certain way.
