'stumble'

I hate it that you allow their words Cause you to stumble It shouldn't you know They are talking from a space of observation Whereas you are in your skin You experience every emotion Who are they to spew negativity Who are you to even listen to the judgements handed out Please allow yourself the freedom to walk away or evict yourself from places where your peace are in question You deserve peace You deserve joy Everyday will not be the same But you should not stumble over people's opinions There are way more important obstacles to overcome
