I watch as it unfolds right before my eyes, in my face. I don't know how much more I can handle. Its overwhelming. I look to my left, and its in my face, I look to my right, and there it is again. I close my eyes, and I see it right before me, its as if I'm watching it in the darkness of a cinema.
I watch, and I quiver with fear. Perhaps its just the pathological people pleaser in me that's talking, but I can't bear to see anyone get hurt in this "game". I have absolutely no idea what else to call this... this thing. It's akin to a tennis match... And someone's the ball, bouncing back and forth between each other's half of the court.
I ain't the ball. I'm merely a spectator ball picker on the side. I pick up the ball, then throw it back to the players in the game. I'm not sure how long this is gonna last, but with time, as with all other tangible objects/matter, it will wear and tear.
Unfortunately no one sees and foresees what I see as it unfolds. I guess the chinese saying is true. In translation: In any situation, the bystander has the most objective point of view.
It's all fun and games now, but when someone get defeated, who's gonna pick up the pieces?
