Empathy

This year has been a year of silence.
That silence that comes when you realise its out your control,
Have no opinion on the matter as it defies logic,
No previous experience or experience of any form to draw wisdom from.
You just become quiet and watch.
At this point you dont rationalise anything.
Just say a lot of 'it is well's

How i love it when even the loudmouths get on that bandwagon!
I want to say "it got you too huh?"

In all of this, some people still dont get it.
This amazes me. And makes me quiet. As i see the futility in explaining the obvious
They still have a point of view which everyone else should take as a truth or a fact because "you know,i have been giving this some thought....."
Like their thoughts can ever be completely objective. (And please if its not, sharrap!)
Like the rest of our brains have been playing "green light, red light!" And our playmate put us on red and disappeared.

Lets not forget our  emotional filterless nutjobs, who just decide not to think
Who will probably take offence if i dont mention them.
There is a sudden death and they shout "Why did you die?!"
It is all i can do for my eyebrows not to go above my hairline.
Then they go on to outwail the person who suffered the loss
Or they want to give you 'a piece of their mind'.....like they had much in the first place.
You almost want to say "keep it, you need it more than i do......."

As i said , it has been a year of silence
Because whats the point of talking?
Its not gonna change much, probably make people be more obnoxious about their point of view.
Well this is my point of view. SHUT UP! Do more, talk less, more productive .....

A year of silence indeed!
But a girl's gotta vent somehow......

Death

Again you have surprised me.
A love you need not be afraid of,
All the lure of a beautiful man and his gifts
To make you forget today and yesterday
Looking earnestly forward to tomorrow.
Your arms hold so much promise
I always knew you were coming
But yet.......
Again you have surprised me.
I am covered in goose pimples,
Shivering in my vulnerablity
As i stand in your gaze.
I am  unsure
But have me you must.
Every cell you can command
The beauty and fear of it all.
I have been waiting for you but....
Again you have surprised me.

I am not ready.
