Hi everyone! Happy 4th of July!
It's a holiday and I have no plans besides some grocery shopping. I probably should enjoy what little freedom I have until I have to go back to the corporate world. Anyway, today, I wanted to talk about something that's been on my mind since last night.
With my usual "stalking" tendencies, I saw a new picture from someone I used to know. In the picture, his head was down, his eyes were downcast, and his lips formed a frown. Something about it tugged at my heart and I wrote a poem about it... Below is a snippet from my Instagram:
This person pushed me away because my sense of humor offended him. Heck, my whole personality offended him. He was also the person who inspired me to be a better person. Despite the insults and emotional battery he's dealt me, I simply turned the other cheek and gave him a smile. I wanted to be his sunshine, the one who can inspire a smile on his face. Obviously, that wasn't what he wanted.
So now, I just think to myself, without sunshine, all he has is darkness and a frown. That's not how life should be lived. Then again, who am I to dictate how one should live his life? Maybe I just don't understand him the same way he misunderstands me. We're two different people. Sadly, our paths wasn't meant to stay connected.
