Weighted Words Where
did
your empathy hide?
your consideration choose to escape?
your freedom sink from view?When
did
your heart become cold from disuse?
your ability to think shrink to become non?
your feet become frozen in fear?Please, don’t insult yourself by replying,
“I don’t know!”
without
first
deep thought
for your answers are merely
in limbo,
they wait for youto fire the synapses
– connect them to conscious thought –until then
they serve only to weigh you down.MeeAugraphie
