Misunderstanding

Relations are so weak and fragile

It takes years to build them up

Watering, pruning and constant care

But it takes a moment to goof them up

However much one takes care

Not to hurt or annoy others

Misunderstandings develop all of a sudden

To their dismay who care for each other

Watch your words and how you conduct

Communicate so that doubts are cleared up

Even then one is understood in different ways

As are various minds and their different states

Emotions make or mar the show

Without emotions life is a joke

Indifference and listlessness suffocate and choke

Let emotions flow freely, why poke one's nose

Understanding is by far limited and conditional

Interpreting sameness in quite different ways

Universal understanding one should aim at

Viewing things differently, yet interpreting the same way

Unintended misunderstanding hurts a lot

How one interprets it was thought not

What we see and think, that we say

But that we don't perceive, it makes a difference

Interpretation or misinterpretation of things matters a lot

But what matters more is that eyes and minds we close not

Life is made rich and spicy, by good works that we do

And with some controversy and misunderstanding to which we all contribute!
