Disconnect

Today I feel drenched in the sorrows of lives all around me. From the novel I read, to the news flashes on television, to the very own stories of my beloved, there is very little pleasure mixed with too much agony. I feel scared.. Like I need to protect all whom I love from this treacherous serpentine wave. How have we created so much hatred in us that it has transcended into all areas of us and our companions. When I look at fellow humans, some who I know and some who I want to forget, I feel ashamed. Ashamed of the kind of people, people turn out to be. I feel like running and screaming so loudly that even the Gods fear the human they have made. Screaming so loud that all the evil spread around leaves us and fades away with the echos of helplessness. But then I stop, and look behind to reassure myself that I am not the lone fighter in this, and see that no one is there, because no one cares. We live and die in a world where people are connected by blood and distanced by love.
