Array ( [sid] => 183689 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => No more... [time] => 2016-10-24 11:22:58 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Just because I am constantly counting my every word,
Does not mean I do not have plenty to say.
I bottle it all up inside,
I am the one left with the high price to pay.


Just because I am always trying to get control of my emotions,
Does not mean I do not feel it at a million miles per minute.
The scars are left where no potion or lotion,
Can ever begin to heal it.


Just because I am always aware of how I would feel in your shoes,
Does not mean that I do not get hurt when you do not even consider me.
I am always the one prepared to lose,
So you do not have to sit in the same hurtful spot as me.

Just because you treat me like an option,
Does not mean that I do not see you as my whole world.
Just because you see fit to drop me in a notion,
Does not mean that I am barely hanging on by a tattered thread, just to get dropped whenever you get bored.


Just because you treat me with total disregard,
Does not mean that I do not give you respect first.
That is why I get totally caught off guard,
When the festering wounds finally burst.


For I am always the one who ends up saying sorry, always biting my tongue, always trying to keep the peace, always giving respect and regard but getting very little or none -


I am DONE.


NO more.


You are nothing less or more than me,
A standard size of grave is measured for us all, each and every one.


Just because you have more zeroes in your bank account,
Does not give you any right anymore to treat me as "little" or "less" - Oh no more, you don//'//t!!!

this poem has a lot of gravity in it.
a lot of words said that maybe each person
should reconstruct them carefully enough to show that they are listening to what you have to say -

or maybe just enough would be a great start.
Well said!

drop the mic as the credits roll :}

Peace!

Love the way even the poem is controlled to a point and then.............bang, the resistance finally boils and spills out onto the page.
Clever write.
I know how you feel. Some of us always try to keep the peace or smoothe things out but every once in a while we think
"Enough is enough, what about me?"

Hello Darling

Yes it’s hard to be humble even at the best of times. I’m so proud that even in situations like this, even though you have something to voice. You still do it with dignity and like a lady. Powerful message and a lesson to us all

I love you
