Poetry

My Bare Soul can be found at the pit of the glistening waterfalls where my words reside. My loud vulnerability. My truth that I do not hide. My voice although unheard, my words make it come alive. Although it trembles, my hand or pen in it never sha...

Simple as that

I don't think I'm someone who plays the victim when I literally blame everything on myself. I know how to hold myself accountable. When I've messed up, I can own up to my wrongs, I know exactly what I did wrong that may have caused problems.

I even apologize when I've done nothing wrong. I say "sorry" when it's not even necessary on my part, just to keep the peace.

I don't fight for myself in heated situations, because it'll only make matters worse.

But I stopped doing that, no I'm not going to apologize in situations where I'm not wrong, no I'm not going to feel bad when I've done nothing wrong.

There are a lot of times where I've been the victim.

And there are times where I've been the villain.

There are times where I'm both. I can admit that.

So, when I'm told that I play the victim it ticks me off, because that's not even in my character to do, when I'm wrong, I'm wrong. When I'm right, I'm right, simple as that. -J.S.
