A stunning write! It is once again written in your blood! Who can judge who is normal and abnormal...... Who has the right to judge anybody! What each human being longs to get is a little love, a little empathy and above everything a little understanding! We cannot categorize people into rigid modes. Each one is different and each has to be accepted that way. Our life's each moment is toiled away fighting with a predator that's inside Us - I can imagine the emotional trauma a person feels if his life is a fight against a predator staying within himself! External predators can be defeated, but it is hard to vanquish an enemy within oneself. This demon can be driven through a combined effort of the victim as well as those who associate with him! I sense the gnawing pain these people feel and hope they'll be understood in a better light! Souren..... as before you have voiced for the voiceless!
I see this as a spoken monologue Souren. It is will written and gives insight into 'cutting.' Again, you've captured the difficult underside of things that people don't often talk or write about. You give voice to the people who are hurting and need empathy and understanding. Thanks for sharing your insight in this poem. Finally, What is an Emo? ...I looked it up and it looks like it was some sort of Rock genre from the 80's...part of the hardcore punk rock movement? I like how you referenced Emo and Sisyphus in the same poem! Well done.
Thank you Pamela.. I always try to touch upon issues that are close to me, doesn't matter if they are 'dark' or 'taboo'.. 'Emo' is truly a Rock genre of the 80's, but in its colloquial usage it has come to be used for (teenagers in particular) who 'cut' themselves and self-harm.. It's just sheer hypocrisy according to me - people not are entitled to be kind and compassionate (let alone empathy that I believe is something one either has or don't. It can't be cultivated) , but 'judging' people and harming them with words and forcing 'kids' if I may say it into social alienation simply increases their misery.. If the society don't want help them - fine - but don't harm them, which is being done.. And that is NOT acceptable..
A wonderfully written piece, Souren. Respect, kindness and empathy are things we all deserve and should give. Depression is insidious, a little understanding and compassion may not cure it but can go a long way. This poem should be read by every human to help them understand where the pain comes from and how they can help.
We don't need your sympathy, We certainly don't need your judgement All we need is love, acceptance, compassion and empathy - A wonderfully written piece, Souren. Respect, kindness and empathy are things we all deserve and should give. Depression is insidious, a little understanding and compassion may not cure it but can go a long way. This poem should be read by every human to help them understand where the pain comes from and how they can help.
Verily, the highly emotional have to face a lot, their lifestyle seems odd to the world but patience is what God formulates from all.......10 I invite you to read my poems
