Poetry

A little tired

Of dealing with bullies

I thought I was done dealing with them as a child, but immature adults are coming for others they see as weak.

But they are smart enough not to mess with me, but I don’t want to see someone else get picked on because you see yourself as a big bad wolf.

When will it stop, and do they know karma will come around and get them?

Life could be so much better if some women were kinder and just minded their business.

Maybe one day they will learn, but today, I am in the middle of the drama, and part of me wants to get involved, but is it worth the risk when it’s work drama?

Probably not, so my head will return and let the people in charge handle it. I can’t afford it turning on me—the little bystander isn’t sure what to believe because lies have been said before.

What is true when I’m not around to prove it?

  1. pameladbeverly – The East Coast – I was motivated to start my blog by my novel, Relations, however it revolves around people in general and human relations, in particular. And of course it's about writing which has been a lifelong passion of mine. Take a look around and if you like reading or listening, check out my novel, The Love Labyrinth, available as an e-book, paperback or audiobook! My new children's book, What if an Octopus Followed Me Home? is available. Autographed copies of all of my books are now available on my website as well as Amazon.

    1. mywords2228 – Love writing poetry and reading tons of books. I also write short fiction stories and hope to include them on my page soon; I hope you enjoy my work, and thanks for stopping by my page.

      Yeah, it’s sad that compassion and empathy aren’t there. It’s like we’re all humans, and things happen.
