detach....

detach....

A Poem by Brad
"

when one gets sick of trying....

"

i always embrace

what i can't have

what doesn't want me

i try to help

those who want to drown

it's something in me

that puts on a cape

and wants to be the hero

a hero in a apathetic world

no one cares

no one wants

eternal winter

eternal frost

perhaps i need to stop

caring

helping

loving

wanting

because it's not wanted

and we all want

what we can't have

right?...

i have felt the same
and this was expressed insightfully
eloquently
when i feel this way
i take all the energies i place out there
back into me
yes detach
do without keeping count
and expecting return
invest in changing ourselves
that's the only one we can master or try to
lead by example.

I no longer desire what I do not have and truly try to be happy with what I do have.

I have this problem as well- I try to fix everyone else's issues, and it only ends up hurting myself when I can't.
Very nicely expressed.
Great write. :)

This one touches me deeply. I always care even when I think I shouldn't. But if we caring people of the world stopped being sympathetic, turned a blind eye, hardened our hearts, who could stand in this world? Who would be able to face the day? Who would cry out for those oppressed, burdened, beatened?

We must care... for we prevent Bedlam.

Beautiful, Brad.

Sad, but true...but keep the cape, anyway. It's only when you reach that you grasp.
