Feelings I Ought to Feel

by ·

9/24/2016
When I don't feel
The feelings
I ought to feel

I wonder if something is wrong.
Have I lost what brings
Emotion to life?
Has the melody
Faded from song?

Will I ever reclaim
That beautiful spark?
Fleeting—once here
Now gone.

Has the desire forever
Escaped my grasp?
The feeling
I need
To belong.
