Cold Landscape

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In a moment I knew I am cold

I began to prolong

The things I got used to

Never minding the numbness

And  the blasted frost bite.

 

I guess I got used to this feeling

    the make-shift of emotions,

Never falling.

When we say that we are numb, we are already devoid of any feelings/emotions. We cannot feel pain or pleasure anymore. Isn’t that very liberating (but of course that will turn us into machines/robots). In this piece, despite the assurance that the voice never mind the numbness or frost bite, the whole piece actually spoke glaringly of the contrary. When we “make-shift” of our emotions, we feel deeply our emotion but we don’t just want to confront it. We, humans are strange being, we sometimes love to prolong our agony instead of confronting it and get done with it. I love the subject matter of this write.

"We, humans are strange being, we sometimes love to prolong our agony instead of confronting it and get done with it" ---sigh.... how true it is and I just love how you can relate to it, Gab my friend... It’s amazing how keen you are as if I never knew that, it’s surprising to read your point of view… how much you see, is just wow… thank you Gab always…

[gabrielle]

welcome...:)

[Dhaye]

Ah, sorry, Pax. I can say nothing but I admire Gab's review and believe in it, too.
There is really a strange character within oneself...but acceptance and faith will make the person fine. I am not surprised with her keen eyes (though nagtatago si "Mata" now). LOL.

I admire your take in this piece, Gab. :)

[Pax]

thanks pretty friend...

hehe, oo nga nakatago ngayon si Gab, I wonder... hmm...

[Dhaye]

I mean, dati mata lang naka-display sa kanya. Now, nakatago yung mata nya jan sa avatar. Di mo tuloy alam kung saan sya nakatingin pag kinakausap mo. Dati eye-to-eye sya makipag-usap. Hehe
Peace tayo, Gab. Superlola is here

Sometimes I feel like this, Pax, the bitter cold and numbness with no emotions of not caring anymore. But this is beautifully written piece, and I love the photo as well, as the tree symbolizes loneliness inside of ourselves, were are cold and numb.

[Pax]

Hey, my friend, its great seeing yah, I hope your doing alright and well... yes... indeed, its a common feeling that we have both experience in some ways, and I am glad you find the picture fits the poem, its does indeed symbolized our numbing feeling and the coldness of reality --loneliness... thank you for giving the time to read my piece, its always been great seeing you...

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i felt much from this piece...the numbness, the coldness that comes after feeling too much emotion and pain...like a hard rain falls...and then we end up feeling too much and the rain becomes snow, then ice.....and then we melt to slush and disappear.

[Pax]

my friend, thank you very much, I am glad you can relate to the feeling, this piece just came out that needed to be expressed, I appreciate you reading my piece...
