Just another mindless human.

Have you ever stayed at home long enough or just been away from people that when you finally go out, the world is too big and loud for you? 
Well, time has become nonexistent for you but seeing people just scurrying around, hurrying here and hurrying there makes you instantly aware of the existence of time again.
You can feel them judging you. With just one look, they sum up who you are. They emanate self-importance and frustration.
You keep walking through the crowd; the feeling that you don't belong here and shouldn't be existing starts sinking into your head. Thought after thought floods your mind and soon enough it becomes too much. Unable to keep track of these thoughts you lose yourself into the collective conformity, go numb and become part of the parasitic crowd.
Just another mindless human, hurrying away.

Ann

She cried again last night. As usual I had nothing to say but pat her to sleep. Almost two and a half years of continued weeping at night. Shouldering the burden of soothing a 7-year-old, what wisdom does a 10-year-old have to bring it to a stop. Lying next to me, sharing a single bed “Akka, where is mommy?”, the same question asked repeatedly, drowned only by the whir of the fan keeping us cool on  sweltering summer nights.   Looking at her this morning, you would never know the existence of her nightly griefs. Grandma held her hand whilst we both waited for our 6 a.m. school bus. Her short curly hair, dark blue primary pinafore, white shoes, slouching under the weight of her school bag pregnant with heavy textbooks, she looks so ordinary. Or maybe not, we both were unusually skinny and scrawny. Something we have constantly been made fun of at school; a few more years later down the line when we both approached puberty the bullying is only made worse for being flat ches...

Death is earthly.

Six feet under, Tear stained soil, White lilies, A requiem mass. Carpet of grass, Pregnant clouds, A gentle drizzle, Footsteps fading, Branches swaying. Tranquil. Misted with sympathy, The breeze sighs patiently, The songbird sings a glum melody, "Memento mori, memento mori." "Death is the end of your story." Many a dawn, Many a dusk, Daisies pushed, A banquet of maggots, A feast of flesh, Stripped to bones, Naked. The earth nourished, The earth flourished. Death is mercy. Death is earthly. For dust thou art, Unto dust thou shalt return. GrymmRipper. :]

Unfinished business

The nagging guilt of unfinished business Procrastination The need to do and not do The lists Reminders "Remind me if I forget" I forget And you forget. Forgotten Remembered  But then, laziness. -GrymmRipper-
