why not care to settle another persons uncertainty?
why would i not care to have the patience of heart and acknowledge another not as courageous
why would i not share my uncertainty and lighten their load
for only fools do not fear the unknown
and their arrogance be their demise for along will come
one day
that very thing that will find their weakness and pair it against them.
why would i be worried to be human and showing of my emotions
when that is the very thing that separates me from inanimate objects and gives me character
and a personality.
to be with another who trembles at the first look, the first touch a hesitant step forward
a greeting shy
and then that smile breaks a face worried
and the eyes show relief.
so when that sigh escapes it be the release of pent up uncertainty
it be the release of a wired physical form needing gentle coaxing
needing banter light and inviting
needing another who can push all the right buttons
without having been aware what those buttons may have been.
to hear suggestion
to be shocked yet, comfortable to listen and maybe ponder
at the thought of how sheltered, blind, arrogant or misinformed one may have been.
it be a mad world, a doggy eat doggy world
there be no doubt about that
but it be a beautiful world too
if one knows where to look
or rather
if one knows how to look
...and realise
at one point one may be on top of that food chain
and
at another point one may be at the bottom of that food chain.
none be so above another for the universe be bigger, older and wiser than all.
so to choose to be human and showing of my emotions
i celebrate with another
who today feels as if i be on top of that food chain and he be beneath me.
i shall show him that we are equal.
