ABOUT ME

its the silence that shocks me
its such a queer time to be awake. where you peer out of the window, all you see is the darkness that engulfs you. there's a nagging voice at the back of my mind, telling me that it is such an ungodly hour to be still up, here, typing this. but i cant seem to do anything about it. not that i'm not tired, just that i dont wish to close my eyes.
as we all know, humans have this huge tendency to look at differences, not similarities. taking not of that, i try hard to find similarities in the things around me now, yet, there's nothing that i was able to detect. this makes me wonder if it is really that things have changed, or is it just me who has changed. who is gonna be the one who tells me what has changed?
someone close to my heart told me quite recently, that i'm in fact an extremely flawed individual. i was confused if i should feel hurt, or if i should be glad that at least someone around me is willing to pick up the courage to point out my mistakes. my reaction at that particular moment may have seemed that i was offended. i wasnt. i was merely shakened.
now, tell me. are changes good? should we change to our surroundings, or should we stick to our beliefs. if we stick to our beliefs, what happens if our beliefs are skewed? and if we change to suit our surroundings, wouldnt we lose all the values which are supposed to be embedded within us? which is right and which isnt? or is there not a definite answer to this? what do you think?
as i'm about to end this and head to bed, a friend of mine seeks comfort in me, with the generous offer of my ears. as he rants on his troubles, similar images start pouring in. that made me realise, this, is never going to end.
why did you leave all the images pouring on me
not the abruptness that drowns me
baring my soul
