Emotion

By Haneef “Geno” Talib

Disconnected from emotions connected to sensual love emotionally___

dismissive,

Incapable, I can’t feel what they’re feeling

Laying on my back staring at the ceiling,

Problems dreaming while I’m sleeping

so I’m up thinking too much

Numb and out of touch with what love is

Not loved by those who are supposed to love you first as kids,

so, I smother my emotions in between these lines

No oxygen to keep the heart pumping.

But I can love!

Came up stomping in the trenches. . .please understand that I love different

Loved by Ramona in ways she couldn’t comprehend. . . GeNNo said it!
