You, me

How can I say to others so many things that I don't really do...

You, me 

My feet are tired

My head wants to explode 

I'm losing my energy 

I'm losing my voice.

Not a soul notices

Not a person talks

No one even wonders

What is going on my mind?

Yet, too many questions 

Looking for the answers that I can't find

Trying to avoid the questions

Those referring to the past.

You tried to fix all my errors

But you were the first one doing it wrong 

You told me about my composure 

But you were the first one who lost control.

I was built on my own experiences 

While you were trying to build me with yours 

I was trying to learn from my mistakes

But you always blocked my way leaving me without choice. 

How do you expect me to be a better person 

To grow and be more like the person you are

If I wanna grow up my way

And imitate the person I really am.

I may not find the answers 

I may have struggles in my life

I may pretend to be strong 

But that's a mask, you know me very well deep inside.

I once knew a guy, who upon meeting, always asked 'Hey, how are you doing'; then immediately started talking about themselves before I could answer - Your poetic reflection of personal circumstances was a great reminder of a one-sided relationship! Poignant and worth pondering … great write! :-)

Thanks for the review 🙈 People can be like that, and don’t care about anything more than themselves not seeing or wondering how others feel, but that’s life sadly xd..☺️😘

Damn! These persons....what should they be called..annoying?! Then we'll be named arrogant!!
But I guess answering direct on faces....about what irritating you find in them is the best...
Good read☺

[Jennifer]

Poem amazingly talks about how should a partner or friend or anyone else should help one to grow in his or her life instead nagging them about their mistakes....I wish people understood why it is important to grow!!

[Jennifer]
