The Lost Certainty
It no longer feels like an ordinary disappointment
as if darkness slowly seeped into the way you understand humans
everything after that seemed different in a way that is hard to explain
Faces became more obscure
words less innocent
and intentions appear as something untrustworthy no matter how pure they seem
The mind tried to grasp the idea that conscience is fixed within humans
that love does not turn
that loyalty does not change
that kindness is not used as a weapon against its owner
But what happened was not a slap
it was not a passing betrayal
it was a fracture in the structure of perception
The mind does not see reality as it is but as it expects it to be
and when surprise comes
not only is the other revealed but you feel that the idea of humanity has become incomprehensible
How did love turn into a tool and loyalty into weakness and honesty into a mistake
Here I stopped interacting not because I no longer trust what I see
silence here is a withdrawal from a reality that is no longer understandable
as if you stopped interacting not because you ended but because you no longer trust what you see
Has conscience truly disappeared or were we only seeing it as we wished
maybe
maybe the world has not changed as we think
maybe what changed is the angle of vision
maybe conscience was never as clear as we imagined
Pain does not remain in what others did
it remains in your perception that you were not seeing as you should
maybe we are the ones who lost the ability to distinguish its voice from the start
