Clickand Read...and Listen

by Xirkul Tupas   Jan 26, 2008


Do not select silence,

For I know that you need someone to talk.

Do not choose privacy,

Because there are some things that need to let go by expressing it.

Do not prefer to hush,

At times, we need to get loud and be listened.

In this case, I suggest you to hire me...

Just call me by my name (Xirkul)

And I will be there immediately

As possible as I can, I promise;

My ears are so widely open for your confessions, revelations, and issues.

Do not worry for I am safe

Thus you are free to do what you would like to tell.

I am not a psychologist to guide you

But I am a friend that loves you.

Hug me if you want to

Cry on my shoulder if you need to

Kiss me if you desire to

Do what ever you feel to do

Except sex of course

(I mean I wish to do it but I am still innocent,

Therefore I may not fulfill your satisfaction)

I just want you to feel comfortable in the best that I could.

I am your Private Secret Keeper.

Pay me your Trust.

But you know what?

Sometimes I tend to hate this profession of mine

Because it seems that I am born to pay attention on others' lives

But come to think of it, I cannot fix my own messy existence

Like you, like everyone else, I need also a private secret keeper

A mortal that listens...and loves

If only I can hire myself.

I have no option then

But to...

Select silence

Choose privacy

Prefer to hush

...

FOREVER <until my own private secret keeper comes>.
