  • Hard task

    It’s a hard task Confronting someone, About something That they have done, Especially when It’s a person you know, Who has life hard But who decided to go, Beyond appropriate bounds And then when you do They have a meltdown, But no matter how You may feel about them, If they have crossed the line…
