When after you do it you get wrongly accused of worse things
Telling yourself you have nothing to prove
But sadness takes over when they say your destin to loose
Its like none understands how they intrude our subconscious mind
Teaching us to want to lie and spitefully justify
Our minds are very powerful and controlled by words
They effects us good but effect us the worse when they hurt
Your suppose to think before you speak but when is that ever applied
Especially when the things some people say hit the deepest hurts and make you cry
If i let you gain that much power over me
I really don/'/t understand why
But even if you were my best friend
I/'/m cutting you out of my life
Because thru everything i gave your words meaning
I cant let you break what i/'/ve struggled to fix
because unlike you I wont tell you something if i didn/'/t think about it
so if you cant help and say things that are positive
You are no longer in my life or my prerogative [comments] => 3 [counter] => 94 [topic] => 48 [informant] => emonie_williams [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

We can/'/t heal if we con/'/t extricate ourselves from the people as well as the habits. To start all over...we must start all over. You have said it so much better than I.

hard not to project what others
project onto you, but they are wrong,
and they never knew, maybe it was
not their fault you might start to believe
making you wrong as well.

but if you step back, past all that,
it comes down to what you decide
and nobody says it is an easy thing to do,
it is an extremely hard thing to do, and anyone
who does deserves a heck of a lot of credit,
which by that time, is not something they
actually need, because by then, they are already
whole.
But you know, there are a lot of people who do not
project these false ideas on people, especially when
they are down and out.
We need more people like that, you know that.
I think that/'/s what we all want, and truly do need more of. That is who you are. And that is the best reward.
Frailty is the paradigm of life and therefore I believe
we all need each others good intention, and helping hand.More than just a second chance, we need
to believe in ourselves and hopefully help others
help themselves. Not always an easy thing to do.,
sometimes far far from it.
emote the positive, continue to give it all you got.
i know, I have been a wreck myself, continued at times
it seemed, only by sorrow.

Peace!

Very sad but people do exactly as you suggest.

God bless you!
