The Exclusion of Sympathy and The Neutralization of Apathy

Contributed by Onslaught on Wednesday, 13th April 2005 @ 05:55:40 AM in AEST
Topic: didactic



I知 becoming desensitized to my feelings
I知 becoming desensitized to the world
I知 becoming desensitized to the warmth
I知 becoming desensitized to the cold

Ignorance may be bliss
In your minuscule extent limitation
Unaware of infinite expansive potential
But a realization of absolute truth
Without an impact on emotion
Is vastly more gratifying

I知 becoming desensitized to my feelings
I知 becoming desensitized to the world
I知 becoming desensitized to the warmth
I知 becoming desensitized to the cold

No one is a victim of this hell
We致e all had our part in creating it
Every good deed
Has the potential to cause harm
Every bad deed
Has the potential to do good
Even doing nothing
Has its spectrum of effects
As you play out your deviations
I no longer have regrets

I知 becoming desensitized to my feelings
I知 becoming desensitized to the world
I知 becoming desensitized to the warmth
I知 becoming desensitized to the cold

I Don't know why or how
I would try and explain this to a person
It would be like trying to explain the sensation
Of doing somersaults to an invalid
Both unable to imagine a feeling
Better than the one
They can only ever know
Maybe in my exclusion of sympathy
In my neutralization of apathy
I値l finally be free to grow

I知 becoming desensitized to my feelings
I知 becoming desensitized to the world
I知 becoming desensitized to the warmth
I知 becoming desensitized to the cold

As a sympathetic
Or an apathetic
Either way you go
Which ever one you choose
You are still consummately pathetic

A very complex but very well written piece of poetry. When I first read it the poem's meaning came across as slight ambiguous but when I read it once again there is a deeper meaning to everything you are trying to explain in the poem. I found you came to a great conclusion in the last stanza of the poem... what you have stated is entirely true in every aspect of life. You indded have a natural talent for poetry.

Keep writing and take care,

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ツゥ
