Be Patient
Born perhaps with a special gene configuration
Every situation needlessly prompts my rash reaction.
Poise, the stable state of the balanced mind
Always takes an untimely flight evading me
Triggered by the discord in my self-sustained psyche
I react prematurely when I should be silent
Engaged in invited rows I've learnt bitter lessons
Now I realize and resolve, enough is enough
Time for me to be patient.
