Nick Trim Poet Rhyme

It's Not About Them

In your head did it ever occur 
these stories are not about her
they’re not unprovoked 
attacks or pokes 
though some worthy jokes 
that were provoked 
but note that’s not why they’re wrote. 

So what if I put her down with words 
is it  worse than the daily bullying she served,
stop and think 
did you see what you believe to be true, 
give reasons you dismiss me as you do.
 
So she didn’t do the things i say, 
Is your exact memory aware of everyday,
you know because you witnessed 
or you think I just pitch this like I’m witless, 
when I’m factually witty with quickness.

Do you not believe me though you’re no true witness 
and opt easy I’ve a mental sickness,
Cus I must admit this, 
it is wild and out there, hard to believe,
But your memories offer insights, they won’t deceive, 
and I wasn’t sacked I was forced to leave. 
I tell these stories cus I’ve been aggrieved 
but I’m not avenging nor sympathy my need. 

I relive the story 
See if it gives more for me 
To push forward and see 
If I can Restore and set free 
my aim my need be a new me 
it’s not important if we all agree,
no disrespect but it doesn’t matter to me 
won’t change my reality at all you see 
I’m not out to win over it’s all done for me.

You know let go, get living
once dealt with maybe forgiven
but letting it go it’s not an option 
I deal with it so I can trot on.

If you don’t like it, don’t listen,
and if you don’t listen, 
refrain a decision, 
as you don’t hear and have no vision.
