Difference
There is a connection,we do not speak
or even touch
I dont know you
and from where you came
The life you had
or did not have
The insecurities you suffered
I do not know
If you suffered
indifference
or racism
If your father fought with your mother
Or you did have the food you wanted
and you ran in dank office corriders,
wanting a job you wanted....
Whether life was unfair,cruel on you?
The energy you generate is negative
But I do know that NOW
You are sick.
suffering pessimism
you smell foul of deceit
of regret
of an identity crises
of cynicism
whatever it was,
the sun rises for you too
wake up,
though soiled
hurt
lost
wake up
'no matter what your past, you are responsible for who you are'
free yourself
from the scars of the past
that have an impact,long after the context is of no signifance
Get Up
Make a mark on the world!!!
Wake Up the sun has risen for you too...

Tinker...Its amazing how all us go thru the same process of growing up though in different times phases and thru different experiences..
Its good that it gave you some perspective...when we are ready to learn, a teacher somes in a hundered forms,from real life experineces, thru books and also thru observation..it is actually our willingness to learn and to chnange.....
