"acccusations" poems
Explaining the me of me. Always been detailed oriented It’s who I am, it’s part of me. I pound my chest Try to get point across Voice in earnest tone I get offended When accused Of being defensive My opinion, On defense mechanism Is that it is an Explanation mechanism. Defense goes up When it seems You won’t even listen You say you hear I say you do not hear, Hear Rather, you turn your cheek To my offering of just listen for once. So, rather than Defense accusations Think in terms of my Imparting to you who I am My thoughts, my feelings. I want you to know me As I want to know you. An idea, a conversation evolution Open it to new possibilities. Ask a question, make a statement But…rather than answer initial Point of subject Go back, dig, become a reaper What is reason the matter Took spoken form? Discover the prompt Of initial point of discussion And, talk about it. Defending oneself With defense mechanisms Nor acccusations of defense Is simply a dead end. Why is it essential to To send attack claiming Defense, what is it in you Cannot face? Translating defense mechanisms Into positive outcomes By investigating the crux Of the defense By both individuals Seems a more positive approach. A defense of sorts on either side Is just that, Does not change a thing. Just listen, rather than accuse. Let me be heard Just, please listen to hear, Hear. I want me to be part Of life’s prisms To travel into the intricacies of being. If not allowed to talk To share my inner-most self Staying locked in my self-prison Is not where I want to be.
