I know I talk a lot
My job is to motivate
its to lift people up when they fall but want to stay down
But today I wont be talking
I hope you find this in time
….
It was all you
You were nice like a walk in the park or a picnic for two
You had no real bad habits like smoking, drinking, gambling, lying, cheating
Not that I would care much about that they complicate things
I have learnt to walk away from all that
I cannot tell you what to do with your life because you claim to be more experienced but still don't want to listen
You hated being told to grow up and change your ways for your own good mostly not mine
I know you will listen and remember my words only after I am gone
Why does it always have to be that way?
Why do we wake up only after everything falls to pieces
You can blame money, pedigree, degree, upbringing, past hurts, tradition, gender and everything else in the world for why you act the way you do
But it does not help me.
I do not always speak up but I can see past the *******
It wont change my mind either
Your toxic
You either change or I can do all the growing up
