Pendulum

The pendulum of my heart swings
From ecstasy unto despair,
Before I can adjust to this,
It swings to raging anger rare.
And as I try to analyze
This new emotion that I feel,
The pendulum swings once again
And hopelessness my heart doth steal.
Then suddenly from out my lips,
Comes giddy laughter bursting free.
I have to stop and ask myself,
Which one of these is really me?
