Confessions

To you who always hurt our feelings

I was anxiously waiting for a bus along the highway

It's almost 8:00 and I'm still not on my way

Suddenly, an elderly woman is approaching towards me

And I came to help her because that's what is supposed to be.

When she crossed the street safely, she waved at me

I could see that she is happy and full of glee

I was stunned and butterflies filled my tummy

It felt so good and it was so heavenly.

I came back to standing and waiting for the bus

It's already 7:45 and I'm already making a fuss

"She is going to be angry", I thought

Luckily, the bus finally arrived and I rode.

As I was travelling I couldn't stop from thinking

"What will happen today? Will I get a scolding?"

As I arrived in my workplace, it was already past eight

I ran fast because I was already very late.

I made a sign of the cross as I entered our office door

I saw her on her table frowning like a raging bull

I quietly uttered "Good Morning Ma'am"

But no reply was given and I was so dumb.

I was always struggling like this for the past five years

Sometimes it would be too difficult to hold back my tears

I am not happy in this job anymore

But I never understand why I can't walk out the door.

Life is always giving you norms on how to live

But living under these norms aren't the ones you perceive

My boss is always the cause of my stress

This is the thing that I really want to confess.

She has a heart of stone and is always faking her actions

She is usually the reason why employees create factions

I wonder why rich people tend to become so proud

"We are just human beings!"I wanna shout that loud!

But in the end, there's nothing I can do

I am just a nobody, just a mere employee too

I have to work to feed my self and my family

No matter how pain and tears this would cause me.

Sometimes, life just give you persons

Persons that will help you grow for all reasons

I still thank her for being so mean and greedy

For I know this will make me brave and be future-ready.

This kinda happens in my institute where I study....sometimes teachers become so rude and merciless at we students....ok...if in my mistakes they had been so mean I could digest but when I am at no fault and got valid reasons for being late still why they don't wanna understand?! Just an understanding bond could give a relief between employees and owners I guess!!
Hope I'll get to see such world a day in my life....and you're absolutely correct...we learn being brave anyway from them!
Thanks for sharing☺

Thank you for the review. :) I was also hoping for a world of students and teachers and employers and employees to be more harmonious and teachers and employers tend to be more understanding rather than being so mean. We are battling our own kind of battle everyday and I fervently hope that they will be kinder someday. Anyhow, such experiences can really help us be brave. Thank you again. :)

I've always wanted to scream my feelings and I find writing to be one of the best ways to do it. Thank you so much for the support. :)
