Defining Moment

Poem       Defining Moment 
Up on a pedestal fallen from disgrace wounded words physical emotionally 
Drained shouts echoing walls closing in to tired to defend self storage full of
Long over due un resolved issues tightly locked away fits pounding frustration 
Clouding the mind angered filled the room to fast to assume the worst has accrued
Words not taken back can’t come back from were you never left no more silence 
Tiredly constantly attacked for different agendas not seeing the full picture 
Tired of the same roll play played over and over not one to do over moving  on
Might stay but not fully once broken no super glue can reattach the years of hidden
Damaged always having to put a front as all is well when deep down what suppose 
To make you strong is wrongly misconstrued tired of being tired it hurts the most
When you know your not about the pity nonsense fired up always having to defend 
Self integrity to old tired of the same past tension having the glass always half empty 
Done with none other than my self respect for me my self and I fully giving what was
Never fully returned I am always owed one way or another something I most come
To terms with at a much later time must focus on the emotional fiscal responsibility 
That plague me not easily said then done but Achievable     
                                   By Mirian Parrilla
