To listen

09.22.05 (4:18 pm)   [edit]

It is so hard to listen


to take in the other's world,


and understand.


We argue, we yell,


we accuse each other


of not understanding,


when it is simple


we live in our own world.


It causes pain that I cannot do better,


and understand what you really mean,


perhaps it is the same for you,


as it is for me.


No matter how hard we try,


isolated we often feel,


and the promise of friendship,


in the end seems like ash,


that we breathe in,


and it dies and returns to dust,


and the loneliness returns

hey mitch, shishimi here, if u still remember me. I have got another blog and no longer using tblog..

I think .. to understand one is an Art that we have to learn and then to figure out things.

I wish I could be better in everything yet I seem to have failed.. I have to visit psychologist regularly and unable to focus on studies under the depression.

I also think no body can understand one, even myself cannot understand my own behaviours..

Maybe before we take any steps, it's good to position ourself and think if it's us in this or that situation, how we will feel about it, in doing that the other party might not get hurts or pains. And ourself might feel less guilty over it. even someone gets hurts but at least we know we don't mean to hurt anyone. at least we are true to ourself.
