Poem Title:
Poem
"The account I need to pay..." "Is there a better sentence?" "It's not that love is blind—I don't believe that. I believe that when we love someone, we pay so much attention that we notice every little thing about them. This understanding keeps us loving them. But when we're no longer in love, we suddenly notice the knife in our heart." Mr. Jules cleaned his glasses. "When an author doesn't know how to formulate the right words or explain deeply, they often use informal words. It's common." He sips his tea casually. "But isn't that unprofessional? How did people in the past manage?" He squints his eyes. "We are the last generation to witness the people of WWII. They were braver, stronger, and had a kind of wisdom that I think we lack now." "What do you mean? You're scaring me." "There's nothing to be scared of," he pauses and puts his tea aside. "Dani, people suffered a lot in the past, and now we can be grateful, right? But, I have this feeling that these difficulties are starting to fade away to make us believe that, making life neither easier(in material) nor harder(physically or emotionally), but definetly not easier. I have the feeling it stopped. I mean I thought when I was 12 we will have cars which are going to fly, but some things are just not.." "Do you think that because we have phones and electricity now? But why did God let them invent these things?" "Whether you believe in God or not, it's the little things that matter. Humans are not as smart as animals, insects, or even the trees that grow, or your parents, your grandparents. It just doesn’t work that way. We are getting smaller. But I still believe we all have a balance, just different types for different species. With all that we have, it was inevitable that this time would come. Now we are fully developed," he looks at the clock. "Now I wait until it breaks." "Mr. Jules, why do you see everything negatively?" "There's nothing negative about it. It's just that with everything we've created, there's more money wasted, more people making illegal deals, lying, and causing more harm. Just let time run and don't ask me these stupid questions." "It was a simple question; you didn't need to give me a whole life lesson." "But then you'll never learn." I sighed.
