Incognito...

This poem has been left unnamed in my inability to find a suitable title :).

While most feelings have a name,
There're those that claimed fame,
With no defined ways to express
Leaving you lost and confused... and in a bit of a mess :?

Are you ecstatic, euphoric or blissful,
Blessed, delighted, happy or joyful?
Or intoxicated or exalted or gone !!
When you wear a smile you've never known or worn ?

Felicity, mirth, gladness, glee..
Is that what this emotion could be?
To use the right word might well be an art,
But what do you say when there's a song in your heart ?

A bit buoyant yet downtrodden,
On cloud nine but crestfallen,
Greatly gratified yet melancholic,
Often felt as a duo, making the right word a difficult pick !!

But these feelings are best left abstract than articulate,
As they transpire in the moments of the years you'd await ...
They are a gift of God to the evolving and thoughtful kind,
A way to bridge the differences, from one's own to another mind !
