Senses Awakened

An Emotional Journey Through Sight, Sound, Touch, Taste, and Smell

By Aaran SajanPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Come closer still, let me take you on a ride,

Through a world of emotions, where senses collide.

The taste of bitter tears, the touch of gentle love,

The smell of nostalgia, the sight of a lost dove.

With sight, we see a world full of light,

But also darkness, pain, and endless night.

The colors of joy, and shades of sorrow,

A world that we see, today and tomorrow.

With hearing, we hear a world full of sound,

Whispers and shouts, soft and profound.

The songs of love, and cries of despair,

A world of emotions, so hard to bear.

With touch, we feel a world full of texture,

Warmth and coldness, softness and rupture.

The embrace of love, and the grip of fear,

A world of emotions, always so near.

With taste, we taste a world full of flavor,

Sweetness and bitterness, sourness and savor.

The taste of happiness, and the bitterness of pain,

A world of emotions, that we try to sustain.

With smell, we smell a world full of memories,

The scent of childhood, and old reveries.

The fragrance of home, and the smell of loss,

A world of emotions, that we can't exhaust.

So come closer, and let your senses be,

The guide to your emotions, wild and free.

For it is through the senses that we feel,

The world around us, and what's truly real.
