I don’t like arguements or confrontations
But I find it hard to just allow people to use and abuse me,
I am good natured and a kind soul
But pushed to far I am too old,
To suffer that without saying something back
When I was younger, confidence to do this I lacked,
But. Now I don’t suffer fools gladly
I really do hate reacting badly,
So I can only act in the best way I can
Being true to myself because I am just a man,
Flawed and in no ways perfect
It’s not my way to cause any hurting,
But angry words I may have been spurting
Are a reaction to what I feel I am on the end of,
I wish instead I excised control and offered back love,
But I am still work in progress
And that one day I will be better than this.
My sentiments too dear Faux. I love how beautifully you articulate what’s in the soul. Stay authentically BEAUTIFUL! – Yeka 🌷💕🌷💕🌷💕🌷💕

I relate to your poem a lot. I hate confrontations and arguments too but it really is a part of life and we need to work on how we handle it—its essential. Thank you for sharing your poem, we’ll soon mature in handling these things. All the best for you!
