Into the Ocean

The cruelest words are best left unsaid,
The most hurtful truths, remain unwritten. 
Subtlety is instrumental in a blatant assault,
Just as a blunt knife inflicts the most painful of cuts. 
Many often confuse the relation between EQ and IQ,
Just as they discombobulate what one wears with who they are.
Confidence does not require a confrontation,
Just as status does not always beget respect.
The best reflection of one lies not in a mirror,
but in the impressions carved in the minds of those around.
To think without discourse is not a sin,
But to speak without deliberation causes a din.
Time is a commodity I cannot afford,
to waste on the intricacies of the petty episodes in life. 
A fifth of a century has come and gone,
Bring on the laughter, the races and cheers, 
I believe its high time I grow up and move on. (:
