I know you are better than that.
It angers and frustrates me how;
Childish and ill-disciplined you can be.
A motto in which you follow unknowingly,
"Think before"
"Act later."
Think about us.
Think of how people see you when you are like that.
It disappoints me and has drawn me
To the point of a deepening depression when it comes to mind.
To see your role model disobey and,
Throw everything they have taught you,
Out the window.
We learn by example but have you
Evaluated your actions, especially
The ones' you exhibit to us?
It's your time to make a change.
Your life will fall apart if this continues.
I write this as a wake-up call.
Not only because I love you but
To see you become a better person.
It is your choice.

I let the whispers grow
I let them fester in my head
I felt like a moment after glass cooled
Watching as the fragile bulb started its descent to the floor
The glass splaying beauty on the grime below
The sharp pieces slicing everything
just letting the unforgiving stab of lies fly
from loyalty.
Why did I feel like this?
Watching as the glass slowly hummed
an indulgent stare as time rewinded
moments of bright light dissipating with the connection
Becoming clear and naive again to what held their future,
This time?
Cooled glass met a smooth stopping force
An absolution of the shattered pieces it had almost fully become
the careful caress and beholden laments.
A lament similar to what had never been whispered
but it was something whispered sprightly
the richness in their eyes purring at the warm reflected light
disparate to what light had absorbed before.
I'd watched myself with the potential of beauty break
over and over
just to see you let me fall each time,
remembering the last time unlike I did
Up to now that was all I figured,
but the purring observance of this new watch for me
holding in high esteem and regard.
It sang me humor and joy, moments of fear and redemption.
A melody that came from different aid,
hearing discord to the before
emulating and heatedly ventured for distress
But the silence burdened only them,
because I had learned my own refrain of life
