Thinking About Feeling

I am thinking
 about what I am feeling.

These feelings—
 intense, passionate,
 real.

I need to get in touch
 with my feelings.
 Be in the moment.

But my mind—
 always analyzing,
 always thinking
 about feeling,
 instead of just feeling.

Let me think about
 how I can stop thinking
 about how to get
 out of my head
 and into the moment.

I keep thinking.
 And thinking.

About why
 I can’t just be
 spontaneous,
 emotional,
 filled with awe.

I remember—
 I was in awe.

It feels like
 it just happened.

I remember
 the feeling
 of being in awe.

But remembering
 isn’t the same
 as being.
