Where Did Your Gentleness Go

Your are being so obnoxious With an attitude that's very toxic Affecting everyone you meet Someone needs to really beat This terribleness out of you Before it is stuck like glue Sticking to your soul and mind Dig down deep and you will find A gentleness that you forgot While your acting like a butt With every minute you infuse Someone's heart with saddened blues Because you think it's alright Lashing out from a tall height That darkens the days of those Who used to be really close Till you turned around and slid Down a slope flipping your lid And everyone is asking why Day by day they try and try To reach inside and pull out What you used to be about A miracle needs to appear So they can fix and repair What made you so mean and bitter Somewhere there's a spark of flicker That once used to be ignited Everyone would be excited If that torch would light again Bringing back their sweet kind friend

I feel like this was me, 15 years ago! I was so obnoxious when I was a teenager, and my Mom wondered what happened to my personality. Eventually, I woke up and my normal self returned. I think poetry is what saved me! A very positive message you wrote about here, Robin! Well done!
