The obsticale
a poem
Tap-tap-tap, are you knocking?
Is my heart too much of an obstacle?
Do you need me to move my voice?
My passion’s, and truths?
Is my opinion bothering you?
Am I too much of a nuisance?
Do I bother you with my rambling?
Personal achievements, and callings?
The ideas in my mind, are they trash?
Maybe to you, not to me.
Do my questions irritate you?
Do I want too much truth?
I won't move. You move.
You won't move, and I respect you for that.
Am I too unbearable?
Am I too dumb for you?
Well then, I’ve got three word for you.
“Deal with it!”

BARE HUNTER
CHAPTER 15 I pulled up in front of Sandy’s a little early, so I texted Becca again and left a message for Sharon, hoping she had a good day and I’d see her tomorrow. Two cars pulled into Sandy’s driveway. I don’t know why I was surprised to see another man with her. We’d been apart for two years and I certainly didn’t waste any time getting back on the horse.

This is great! I am eternally amazed by the way so many of us try to tailor ourselves for others. Why do that when there's got to be SOMEONE out there who gets us! I do think "Deal with it" is actually 3 words but otherwise this is awesome! Lol
