I'm bored of talking to humans

I'm bored of talking to humans
Lies, treachery, backstabbing
Of a pure heart
In full view
Of a crowd of people who purse their lips
And pray silently
Thankful it wasn't them

I'm no longer interested in talking to humans
I want to speak with the gods
For the gods are pure
But I can't do so

So the closest I can get to that
Is by talking to myself

For each, to ourselves, we are most pure
Where flaws, insecurities and errors of judgement
Are perfectly justified
By the same mind that bornt them

I'm tired of making sense of
Who did it
Why they did
and how

All I know is
I'm no longer happy
And as such
it's time for a change of view

I will sleep
and wake up tomorrow
No longer wondering
Who did it
Why they did
and how

I will sleep
and wake up tomorrow
To speak with the gods
But since I cannot
I will talk
to myself

If you take into account the context of this post, you'll be able to guess what it was.

I'm curious why you're curious about this, actually :/

Talk to my hand! Which one do you want to talk to? The left or the right? Man the timing is just so chun.

Or if you want you can talk to your own hand. Or feet.

:)
I talk to myself all the time. I even talk to all sorts of people in my head. But I don't talk to my hand.

pinksterz said...

yes very near. very very near!

CY said...

runawaycat - Meh, I don't talk to hands nor feet. All sorts of people in your head? Can you elaborate? :P

pinksterz - So, Selamat Hari Raya in advance!! :)

I'd wanted to say you're much welcome and it's good to hear, though if this strikes a chord with you it means you went through something similar what I went through, and that's hardly a commendable experience.

Stay strong, Herbie.
