Feeling Today

At some point in time one stops fooling themselves.


Questioning my sanity I stop
look and listen to an inner voice which whispers
are you truly sane as I attempt to define madness in a world filled with self destructive personalities which some men call nations.
And  the rain of tears flow down my face as I shout.
Who am I to care.

The madness never stops, Mikii. Sometimes I think it's an innate feature of the human race. The more humans the more madness. Then I look at the beautiful features at the core of humanity and take a little hope that we'll muddle through for a while longer.
Love and {{hugs}},
Leland

...whispers...then become screams...and tears of uncaring...that perhaps we wipe away...showing that we care.
well done...

Very descriptive piece of what happens in the mind when all becomes so mixed up until we finally stop to analyze....

Be safe,

If we kept our words inside, who would know what we are thiking. Perhaps, in a small way we do invite change.

You are you, and you must care - else you die alone and sad.

Always a change starts with a one that cares.
Never, but never, lost that spark that impulse you to define!
