All Is Not Well With You

Why won’t you answer when someone says hi? Why would you frown when a friendly gesture is shown? You might think that you are superior, but you and I both know that all is not well with you.

You carry your face as if it is going to help the falling oil price, you twist and turn your mouth until it unites with the bridge of your nose, but you and I both know that all is not well with you

You yell at everyone at the office, your family is afraid when you enter and at ease when you leave, you are happy because people fear and ‘respect’ you. But you and I know that all is not well with you.

It is not because I don’t like you or I can’t stand you. Honestly, I feel sorry for you. But everybody else, at least ninety percent of them can’t stand you. They really will not hesitate to take decisions that will impact negatively on you. The irony of this is that you know and do not care. Why? Because you think you are better than them. But you and I both know that all is not well with you.

You love to be hated, you call it respect. You love to be feared, you call is professionalism. You cherish the solitude, you call it maturity, you enjoy the loneliness, you call it independence and individuality. But you and I both know that all is not well with you.

You tell people “I don’t easily make friends, but I have a few people who I am close to” but then you ask yourself “I have people, but do I have friends?” 

It is nice of you to consider yourself as a person who is very deliberate in her actions. You say you are very discipline and firm. But you and I both know that all is not well with you.

You won’t get better if you keep feeling worse, you won’t get healing if you keep covering the scab. If you keep scratching the pain in your mind, your body will feel it. If you shut others out, they will stay out and there will be nobody in to help you. You know you need help, because you and I both know that all is not well with you.

You don’t feel pretty, you don’t feel loved. You don’t feel appreciated, you don’t want to become weak and vulnerable. They think you are a woman so you need to show the ‘you’re the man!’ people betrayed your trust so that word is out your dictionary.

You’ve always been so smart and successful; you just can’t transmit on the same frequency as these “unintelligent people”. Your life is so much better because of how you live it, you don’t need these people. You have your life goals sorted out, you have your plan in motion; it is working so far, why on earth would you need these people?

I don’t know what your excuse is; I don’t know why you act this way.

Maybe it is because you think you are better than others.

Maybe it is because you think you are less than others

Maybe it is because you do not understand you or them

I don’t know.

But you and I both know that all is not well with you.
