Creative Writing, Enjoy! "Show Me Something."

A quickie I just wrote. Something that should have been said a long time ago. Again...I'm not a poet. Just a creative writer, enjoy. =)


Tell me something. Tell me something I don’t know. Tell me I’m harsh and cold. I already know that. Tell me my walls are too thick and you can’t get through them. I already know that. Tell me I’m crazy. I already know that. Tell me I’m emotional. I already know that. Tell me I’m out of control when I’m upset. I already know that. Tell me something. Tell me something I don’t know. Better yet, show me. Show me something I’ve never seen before. You could tell me a million and one things under the sun, but if you could show me…
Show me something. Show me something I’ve never seen before. Show me that for once, everything I’ve put forth has been worth it. I’ve never seen that. Show me that my tireless efforts to obtain other’s happiness are appreciated. I’ve never seen that. Show me you care enough to be there. I’ve never seen that. Show me that I’m not just another person in your list of acquaintances. I’ve never seen that. Show me how compassionate and nurturing you can be. I’ve never seen that. Tell me something. Tell me something I don’t know. Better yet, show me. Show me something I’ve never seen before. Show me someone who will climb that wall when they realise they can’t get through it. Show me someone who can accept and embrace my eccentric behaviour. Show me someone who can tame my inner beast when it’s unleashed. Show me someone who appreciates my emotions, looking at it as a gift, rather than a curse. I’ve told you things you didn’t know, and things you did. But, beyond just that, I’ve shown you…
Tell me something I don’t know, better yet, show me. Show me appreciation, compassion and gratitude. Tell me something a million times. I’m deaf. Quit telling me, I can’t hear you.

C'est tout! <3
