Lost in Translation

A short but such a descriptive phrase, wouldn't you think so? Well, various events can cause such an issue and one of many is distance. The absence of facial expressions and touch equals anguish pain when a relationship is far apart .

All we have left with is a familiar tone using words to keep each other alive throughout the days and so often with the deficiency of the other elements, words can be easily misinterpreted and misunderstood.The onerous part comes when we are oblivious when it happens because we cant look at the face of another.The drop of the eyes, motion of the lips or even the look away are all missing and all we are left with is silence.

Words with a whole different meaning or intention to you can be your biggest enemy when your counterpart takes it to heart. Its when you receive the greatest punishment of silence, you know something is wrong. Its when you beg for a look or a touch, a priceless measure of console but you know its impossible. Its when the silence grows and you seem like a man in a dark room, shouting for help when no one seems to be coming.Its when silence begins to crack you but hopefully not break you. Do you be patient? Do you save yourself?What would you do then? What would you do?I guess like always..only time will tell...
