Small

Never let anyone make you feel small. Stay strong and courageous. You are worthy of love and kindness. 

Memories from 2020:
New poem... small. 
Some people are awful examples of humanity. They persist in remaining unrelenting bullies and power hungry control freaks... Destroying people, lives and careers when and where they can... Just because they can. But every action comes at a cost. They eventually pay the price in full. 

small
By Michelle Morris

you tried to make
me feel so
small
insignificant
worthless
to all

because you
hated yourself
so deeply 
my pureness
of heart and
spirit 
cut into your
darkness
completely 

but instead of
learning
embracing
being kind
you wanted me
gone
completely
out of sight
out of mind

so you could
forever remain
small in
yourself
but delude the
world
that you were
larger than life

and karma she is a
gracious b****
who burns the 
wickedly
darkened twists

and someday
burning in
hell fire you'll be
wishing you'd been
better
kinder to me
