Numbers and Reasoning
My mind likes logic
Numbers and reasoning make sense
The world just seems to work
Science has an explanation for everything
But science doesn’t do a good job at explaining emotions
And as of recent, my head has been filled with them
It’s a cacophony of noise and colors and things that don’t make sense
The most important time of my life, and I can’t think straight
Numbers and reasoning can’t help me here
I can’t connect numbers to emotions
Like I have for all my school grades
Or how many friends I have
Is it really love that I feel?
How can I tell?
There’s no numbers, no reasoning, just feelings and feelings and so many feelings
I want to blame it on something other than love
My physics class can’t help me here
My math classes are useless
History isn’t doing me shit
English just helps me write these words
Normally the things I think make sense
Connections are made cause they make sense
But all these emotions aren’t making sense
My numbers and reasoning are failing me
Why won’t they connect?
Wolves.
Why am I thinking about wolves? Must be because of that book I read a few days ago, but I am desperately trying to link things together and all I can think about is wolves. Neil Gaiman used that werewolf example a few times I think, where a werewolf bit a chair and the chair became a chairwolf or something. That was really interesting and it's like how do people come up with all these cool ideas while in my brain it's just cobwebs and emptiness. Well, sure, I do have ideas but it's weird because it's so hard to have to find them and pull them out of my head. It's like chasing after an ant or something. You don't want to kill it because it's so small. But it's so hard to catch.
I think I need to do more reading lol
