If you hurt someone's
heart, they won't stop loving
If you yell at them
They won't stop speaking
If you tell them they're dumb
They won't stop learning
If you break their hope and spirit
They won't stop believing
However, they will feel
an ache in their chest,
And they will hear the words
You shouted,
They will hold onto
The insults you called them,
And they will feel like giving up
After you and they sat down to "talk."
But they will not
stop their emotions from blooming,
and will not let your words
consume them
They will keep going towards
their own goals they are pursuing
Because it's not your life, they're living
And they will not hate you
for telling them what they can and
cannot do
They will not stop loving you
After you have yelled at them
They will not stop communicating
about their progression
Because they want your acceptance
And they value your approval
Just give them some time
To be able to grow
Give them the time
that they need alone
