Passive/Aggressive

taking a class on 
being assertive with love 
I've been so confused

mixed up passive with
whimpy and aggressive with 
assertive 'til now

no wonder the life-
less devestation I've left
in my dreadful wake

passive/aggressive
is my middle name for sure
been without a clue

childhood needs unmet
caused me to rush about to
make up for lost time

blind reality
in a huge fog of smoke
lost lil girl searching

for a better way
without losing all I thought 
that I'd been learning
