Listen... I'm Quiet...

"Hey, sungit!", asked taray.
"Hey", I answered back, with a blank face.
"Sungit mo naman!", replied taray in retaliation.
I just smiled back.
"Bakit ba ang sungit mo?"
"Ako? Masungit? hindi ah!"
"Wala ka kseng kibo dyan. Ayaw mo pa mamansin."
Again, i just answered with a smile.
"Ewan sa yo! Gulo mo!", taray said with frustration.
"Ako magulo? Hindi ha! Tahimik lang ako ngayon."
"Eh bakit ka tahimik?", taray seemed irritated.
"Wala lang. Gusto ko lang.", i said smiling.
"Ewan sa yo! Bahala ka! Galit ako sa yo! Tse!"
"Huh!?"
Taray left.
I went on with what i'm busy with.

This is a frequent scene for me. There are just days that i prefer to be quiet. There's no particular reason, and it's for no purpose at all. I just like to give my self some quiet moment. It's a time for me to relax my mind.
But often times, other people think that i have a problem or that i'm ignoring them. Well, sometimes its true, but most of the time it's not. So, how would you know when's when? Easy, talk to me. More often than not, i'll talk back the way i talk during any other day. If i do so otherwise, leave me alone for a while, that means i want to be with just me.

Why am i like that? I don't know. I'm just like that. I just choose not to speak. I just choose to keep quiet. I still talk, i still laugh, but i'm quiet. I mingle, I blend. But i'm quiet.
You don't have to do anything. Just let me do my thing. I'm cool. There's nothing wrong with me. I just want to be quiet.

"the brightness of the light is inviting
promising the mind clarity,
the heart, purity
but i choose the peacefulness of the night
and the calmness of the dark
for the light blinds me,
coz its the only thing i see
whereas in the dark, though i can't see
my senses are sharp
and my mind's open wholly"
