Emotional Growth

August 24, 2017

How must I control my defensive impulses,

when I been messed wit so long and malled by the vultures,

over and over

they kept poking

my mind was messed with so much I lost hold of,

the trust, even with my own gut...what the...

If I can't trust my own how am I to know

if I'm wrong...probably so...but maybe not I don't know

I'm too old to lose control

well there u go

I still ain't grown

my immaturity is showing so it goes

indecisiveness is a b***h

this I know sh**

need to get Gingko you'd be surprised what I forget

at this very moment I feel I may have been selfish

in my reactions because of what I dealt with

but if I'm lying I'm dying I don't retain spit

short term memory slips and I can't help it

so sometimes before you reply

You may be on stand by for a moment in time

I know I'm thrown off a notch but I know I can grow & be fine

If u understood all the whys

And what I been thru in my life and..

I know u wish to see the brighter side

But darkness comes with D light

You can't have pretty without ugly

though unwittingly I give my love to thee

I'm far from perfect love u see, but in the long run

I'll be worth it, but, if u gone run I'll be hurt but..

what you have done for me has perked my spirit up

You helped me learn as such I'll never forget

give you this thank you kiss in the wind

hope u can forgive and hopefully understand

and we can try again sending this prayer to the heavens amen
Love you know, you made my house a home

now I'm in this house alone

prepared for the worst but hoping you show

For the best results I must grab hold

of my senses & set goals for emotional growth

is the consensus
