Some People

Some people train you and bring out the best 
Some people drain you and make you much less

Some people inspire with actions or words 
They show the desire you need to be first, 
Some violate you they behave perverse 
a dominant style to submit to and serve 

Don’t try to be liked or win over approval 
all you’re doing is showing you are useful 
it’s in our nature to been seen as an equal 
but not something you show to all of the people

Not everyone deserves to see the inner you, the sensitive person that you are. I share only with the very few who treat me with respect and deserve the trust I bestow on them. I don't bother with the rest. A meaningful poem indeed thankyou
