Today I learned something
That I’d not before seen:
That someone can be “not nice”
Without being mean.
There was no sense of cruelty
In any way, shape, or form…
Just the absolute absence
Of everything warm.
If you took both the cuteness
And claws from a bear
You had basically
Who I met today there:
Something living and breathing
But someone had missed
Installing the place
Where a heart should exist.
Now I wonder whether
I’ve found something new
Or if I’ve just been sheltered
And hadn’t a clue…
I have met many of these people throughout the years. They hurt the most.

Thank you for sharing! We have enough ways to scream into the void, and yet the void keeps disguising itself to keep us talking 😅

It’s a rarity, my optimism, but it does come about at times *smiles* Borrow away!
