Better, or Worse –
It’s surreal;
that one moment
we come upon
the harsh realization
that not everyone feels
as deeply as we do,
nor do they have
the same
empathetic capacity,
that we have been
so naturally endowed with,
all of our lives,
to experience
other people’s
inner workings,
for better,
or for worse.

Sometimes, what you see is what you get;
there is not always a great mystery beneath the surface,
or some great potential, waiting to be uncovered…

I so agree with what you said. It’s heartbreaking when we discover that the people we would give our all to aren’t even equipped to use their heart. It’s like loving someone who is numb and frozen. Love this poem, Tamara!
