Creating a Slap In the Face

One goes about, with daily living,
doing what is asked, and considering others, during a choice.
However, realizing one, is not guaranteed, the same treatment,
as one receives, an attitude, with such, a harsh voice.

Because for granted, other's take of one's love,
believing the right for them, for them, to have, is there, in place.
Not even, acknowledging the heart, soul, and wisdom, of another,
assuming still, for them, despite us all; creating a, slap in the face.
