Relational Minds

Apparent invisible personalities awakened in random words,

Anonymous statements creating gossip amongst the hungry herds.

Some seek out folks with common, interesting, sometimes intriguing features,

Others struggle with the unexpected, unexplained outbreaks of troll like creatures.

Networks created to engineer 21st century internet based socialising,

Folks building links and creating opportunities to start fraternising.

Some work hard to make friends, fall in love and strive to find lovers,

They even place some individuals consequently above all others.

Is it because our human minds are relational in the way that they do work,

Hence we seek others validation of our experiences in order to develop, but sometimes we this shirk.

It’s not about the physical, it’s the emotional sense of worth and respect that’s more important by far,

Show me I’m loved and that there is a purpose in my existence, not how phat might be my car.

Stand beside me as my rock being there always as life is one mighty tough thing to get through,

It’s easier with an ally on your side to pick you up when times are hard, making you say phew.

Be my reason to wake up and try as hard as I can each day for the rest of my life,

Give me the confidence and reassurance to call you my friend and not just my wife.

But waiting for someone you love to show caring can be infuriating leaving you dejected,

So it’s easier not sharing yourself with others sometimes, staying alone and protected.

That’s why I feel so different, a companion I really do not anymore desire,

I know it’s simply a case of all the hurt has guarded my heart, of that I am not a liar.
