communication.

communication is key

everyday, millions of words are exchanged between people

sometimes though words are identical,
can convey diverse meanings.
the same words used sincerely can uplift and empower someone
while if they are used sarcastically can snuff out the last glimpse of hope in someone.

communication is key.

words are likely to be the most powerful weapon in the world
and everyone, or almost everyone, has access to this weapon.
words can start a war.
or extinguish burning hatred.

communication is key.

couples without communication always crumble.
while enemies with communication can become friends.

communication is key.

words hurt.
words give life.

communication is key.

ramblings part IV

as the day goes on he feels like a hamster in a cage.
but not just any cage
this is a different cage.
it has no beginning and no end.
and you can't see where you going.
you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel.
and it goes in circles.
but he just doesn't know it.
so day after day he runs and runs.
eager to get out
but never seeing the exit.
or ignoring rather.
but anyway who cares about the exit.
he runs and runs frantic to get out.
or so he thinks.
he thinks.

but does he really think?

what IS thinking??
but who cares anyway.
so he runs and runnnns!

and SUDDENLY.

he's out!
out of that wretched tunnel.
but he's still in the cage..

family.

I know I haven't been an easy child,
But love for you lies underneath my whims.
There is no way I could be tame or mild:
I need sometimes to shout and wave my limbs.
You're the wall I need to test my height,
The countervailing force to test my strength,
The chain I hammer at with all my might,
Even though you have increased its length.
To raise me, to just hit or miss.
To have to take turns at playing good cop and bad,
And give me grief before my goodnight kiss.
But love against the odds is stronger still.

most of the time.
