Serenity

Some people try to tease you
They dig until they reach
A point in you that triggers
Your nerves to burn and leach

They think they are so smart
When playing psycho games
Just ‘cause you don’t join in
Means not you don’t notice

So, do yourself a favor
Remove you from such talks
Your health is more important
Than any person’s flaws

When they try to provoke you
Step back and take a breath
They think you are an outlet
For their frustrations’ mess

If there’s a choice for you
of being kind or right
then do yourself a favor
Mute them with kindness’s might

In Love and Light

I just noticed that aging has a good influence on not joining in every provocation of others. Simply stick with the point and don’t get caught up in nerve-wracking detours that help no one.

P.S. Please forgive me for the poor rhymes in some stanzas.
