Some people come at you with roses
and hidden treasures
of dynamite,
wait for you to step back
and give them your love
because they’ve given you
so many roses
so many hearts
so much bullshit
and you give them back
so sweet are you,
so innocent.
Some people come at you with bullets
knock you down
before you can punch,
because you’ve given them the right
by accepting
so many x’s and o’s
they call you beautiful
creative
and plant seeds behind your back
create obscure hurtful
stories
and pray for your loved ones.
I’ve always been the way I am
one face, one account, one name
and this makes me
an easy target
I know.
but I can’t let it go
I can’t be sweet anymore
so people that intentionally
hurt me with their roses
I kick out of my life
with my own Bullets: words.

That was what you meant in your comment, right? Whatever others may do behind our back, as long as we are who we are, we don’t lose ourselves. Some cannot deal with it… their problem!

Wow, this is stunning! And I couldn’t agree more about being yourself and learning to let go of those that are unwilling to accept you for you.:)

Thank you for saying, but it is a bit deeper, more conniving and two-faced people who appear to be your friend but genuinely are not looking out for anyone but themselves.

Yeah, I see that aspect, as well. I strongly dislike two-faced individuals.

Ah, bullets are ammunition. Especially on the crowded trains of NYC where everybody is letting loose with F bomb bullets. I enjoyed reading this my dear. Have a good one. Be safe.

If you receive roses from me, you will get roses without any hidden agenda. Regarding bullets, I’ve learned to just stay out of their effective range. It is difficult to hit a moving target.
