The Life Of An Enneagram Two - Part 2

I can't keep fixing his mistakes

Picking up the shattered fragments and putting people back together.
I can't keep this up.

-He just doesn't listen-

I try again and again to speak to him
*blank stares*

I try time after time to convey any point
But through dead eyes
The same mistakes are repeated.

I'm ignored for my efforts as alternate decisions are chosen which lead to more pain and destruction
I can't keep saving a falling ship

I helped
But he didn't listen
So in my helpfulness
I was unable to help

As he's left helpless

I

Can't

Fix

Him

This is the life he leads

I can't fix him

And so I continue mopping up the broken fragments
Of a person I used to know

Some people cannot be fixed. They don't want to be fixed.
"I can't fix him
And so I continue mopping up the broken fragments

I understand the above lines. All we can do is listen, be kind and be a friend. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.

Glad to hear somebody gets it! Trying to help unhelpable people or fix unfixable friends is such a struggle when there's a balance between everyone having their own opinion vs. Cause and Effect
It's super hard to continue picking up pieces when you care about someone who doesn't head to your advice

I agree and sometimes. They must fall down to learn. I enjoyed your work and hello.
