Apathy

Apathy

My name is Apathy;
I have eyes, but I don’t see,
I have ears, but they don’t hear,
I have lips, but I don’t speak.

My name is Apathy;
Indifference is my brother,
Insensitive is my sister,
Concern is my enemy,
And so is Sympathy,
Empathy and the rest of their family

My name is Apathy;
When I see pain and suffering, I look away
When I hear cries and moans, I cover my ears
I do not want to look,
I do not want to take part,
I live in my own world.
I live for myself,
I serve for my happiness

My eyes are covered with roses
My ears only hears the sound of music
My lips were made to be zipped

Is the world suffering?
I didn’t know.
What of death, war, and poverty?
I have no idea.

The cries of a million hungry souls,
I do not hear.
The tears of a million broken hearts,
I do not see.

I do not see.
I do not hear.
I do not feel.

I am Apathy,
And you are my friend.

Sometimes, I wish fairy godmothers are real

Someday I'm going to get all these...

*DSLR Camera. Love taking pictures. Love photography though I don't think I've got the talent for it.
*Laptop. I want to have one but I don't think I'll be having one soon. Muntik na sana ako magkaganito, sayang...
* A really beautiful house by the beach
* Rest house in the mountains
* Private resort
* Private plane
* Bodyguard
* Personal Masseur. Kasi laging masakit ang likod ko.
* My own chef. Dahil hindi naman ako marunong magluto.

Someday I want to become...

* A journalist.
* A social worker. I want to go to the mountains and teach the illiterate Filipinos, or build clinics in the most remote areas in the country. I want to help people, I want to help everybody have a better life.
* A photographer. Take pictures of people, places, things...anything.
* A Painter. Though I don't have any artistic abilities, I wanted to much to learn how to paint.
* A pilot. I want to fly my own plane and be free even just for a while.
* A traveler. I love traveling, I love culture, I love people, I love scenes, I love history and art and archeology. I want to see everything that the world can show me.

I want to do a lot of things. I guess my whole lifetime is not enough to fulfill everything I dreamed of doing.

But in reality, I just want to make a difference in a world that I cannot change. In reality, I just want to make my time in this world fulfilling and worth living.

One more step

Just take one more step and it will all be over.
I wish its as easy as that. I wish making a decision in life is as easy as putting your foot forward.
But its not and it never will. Life is complicated, that is reality. But its the complications that makes life exciting.
