Something That Is Personal

THERE's SomeThing PErSonAL

I wonder what it'd be like...
If "It's nothing personal" meant what they say?

I have found, somebody is perfect; because when nobody is looking...I still am. 
Looking at myself, wondering, who have I become? 

Please tell me. 
Show me the way.

If my life ends its flight and tomorrow becomes too real to find what's lost when passing shades forget about today...?

Please tell me.
Show me the way. 

Lead me now. 
Lead me on my journey to find something that is personal.

Darren White December 9, 2016 at 4:00 AM 'It's nothing personal' is a defensive remark. Used exactly in the way Paloma and FJ said. And yeah defensive. Because just in case you want to say something in return, they can always hold their hands in front of them and repeat 'it's nothing personal, didn't I say so already'. Ironic Zink December 9, 2016 at 6:59 AM This site and community of outstanding individuals helps me so long as I allow it how. Thanks to all you Soupsters' for the insight and moral guidance. Ironic Zink December 9, 2016 at 6:58 AM I think so too...I am all about equality! We all play our roles and are equally responsible for modeling the overall popular opinion—which consists of highly mixed reviews.

Charlie Smith December 7, 2016 at 8:48 PM Isn't that why some folks "cling to their bibles"? Thought provoking write Zinkster... Ironic Zink December 7, 2016 at 9:59 PM Thank You Charlie. I'm watching nature documentaries and electric fish are enticing...just thought I'd share that with my fellow Soupster's!

Paloma P December 7, 2016 at 5:35 AM It's always personal, no matter what 'they' say! The journey is long, hang in there. :) Paloma P December 8, 2016 at 6:46 AM Ain't no cure for humanity... Ironic Zink December 7, 2016 at 9:54 PM Thank you Paloma. A remedial comment is appreciated.

Ironic Zink December 6, 2016 at 9:46 PM I think this take is best...I think.
