Just Plain

silly i was
prioritising all the wrong things 
they seemed right then 
not anymore

now i search 
from article to article
website to another 
trying to soothe my thought
before this week appointment 

maybe it is all in my head
maybe I've gone paranoid 
i do pray for so 
anything but what haunts my thoughts
anything but what the search engine say 

information! lots of it 
provided to anyone who searches 
but a little pity please 
just a little sympathy please 
the reader is suffering 

they don't care 
its nothing to them
its nothing but plain words

Thoughts are always good, I have been to Bsharri, to Byblos, many places that conjure up many thoughts, all the travels and all the thoughts, make the voyage worth it.....................

Surfing the net for opinions and advice on something as serious as this is not always the best idea, but I understand why people do it. This was very deep and soul touching.
