Poem
~ My Primary Emotion~ Three days ago I decided to become heartless by eliminating my Spirit and Soul I could not take the agony anymore. I urged my lawyer to come, he looked at me and asked, what is wrong? Gazing at him said, I don't regret committing that felony against them I need to be punished lets go to court. Having no reaction, looking disoriented he opened the door walked me to his car & drove to court. Standing opposite the judge I stared at him bluntly, he was reviewing my report looked at me ushered to sit in the box to be persecuted. The defense lawyer aware of my crimes seemed intrigued and asked, madam what caused you to retaliate against your Spirit & Soul?. I needed to disrupt their thoughts which turned against me, the chaos in my brain became unbearable, exhausted by their discussions aggravated my strength weakened me, my whole body was antagonizing, intentionally forcing my thoughts to become heartless, merciless when I attacked them. Both profited from my kindness my patience, my healing was not responding, needing some peace to pray for a miracle as my young brother today is near death, cancer of the lungs, he`s getting colder by the minute, not eating, not socializing, alone, my tears were overflowing beyond control, when I heard a friendly whisper coming from my Heart crying, enough is enough your thoughts need to stop to allow yourself recognize wrath is unbearable, your sorrow is taking you nowhere, wait for the diagnosis. Out of compassion the judge set me free my kindness befriended my Spirit & Soul together we went back home. Waiting. I was surrounded by them knowing ahead of me will be the longest night I will ever experience in years, because I was determined to stay awake for that call. The echo of the ringer came louder than usual we heard this message! Minutes ago he was wide awake Minutes ago his heart tore him away minutes ago his casket was carried astray minutes ago underground he will lay. Minutes ago I wished him an endless goodbye with a sigh. My friends held me step by step walked me to bed covered me up stayed until I had no more tears to shed. Those were my emotions for today. Grieving over the loss of my young brother. Sadness. Therese Bacha 2/4/2013 Contest of Dan Williams. Primary Emotion Today..
