i saw a lot of broken things today - broken people, broken dreams, broken promises to a broken child. there was nothing i could do except feel helpless.
the unfairness of life and the baser side of human nature always win. and it seems so futile to try and repair the damage, because you know, more than anyone else, you know some things can't be mended. no matter how much you try. yet, you still have to go through the motions, you still have to pretend that you hope things can be better, sometimes you even fall for your own pretenses.
but i stopped short at feeling angry. even before i could realise the futility of it, i was asking myself how many people and promises will i walk away from, when its my turn.
