Words

Every day, I defined, defined and defined.

One day, someone yelled “You are not defining you are

redefining.”

Every day, I defined and redefined.

One day, someone yelled “You are not defining or

redefining, you are restraining.”

Every day, I defined, redefined and restrained.

One day someone yelled “Why can’t you let them be as

they are?” 

I replied: Because I have to make them mine. My

words, my definitions, my ignorance. They are mine. 

And he replied: They were never yours to begin with.

Words are meant to be in their own context. With every

word you defined, you created unawareness on your

part.
